Members of the public will not be allowed to bring alcohol into Lord's for the rest of the Hundred in an attempt to create a family-friendly atmosphere following feedback from the first two matchdays at the ground.
According to MCC's ground regulations, fans are allowed to bring in "small quantities of alcohol" - either a bottle of wine or champagne, two cans or bottles of beer or cider, or two cans of premixed aperitifs - to games at Lord's.
But that right has been waived for the rest of the tournament, starting with Sunday's fixtures between London Spirit and Southern Brave - though MCC members will still be allowed to bring alcohol into the ground. A cap of two alcoholic drinks per transaction has also been introduced, and all public bars will close at the start of the run chase in the men's match.
Ticket-holders for Thursday night's fixtures against Trent Rockets were told via email that "following feedback from last night's match, we have agreed to change some of the policies around alcohol at Lord's".
"The Hundred is a tournament designed for families and children and we hope these measures will allow everyone who comes to the Home of Cricket to feel welcome, safe and have a great day out," the email said. "Cricket is a game for all and we want the next generation of cricket fans to love and be inspired by the sport."
MCC has already stripped back its stringent dress code within the pavilion during Hundred matchdays, removing the stipulation for members and their guests to wear collared shirts, jackets or blazers, tailored trousers and formal shoes.
