Durham’s three World Cup fixtures have not been blighted by the empty seats that have been an unwanted feature at other grounds due to returned corporate, sponsors and hospitality tickets. Even for the low-profile match between Sri Lanka and West Indies on Monday, the ground was almost full, with only about 300 tickets returned once the match was confirmed as a dead rubber. The encounter yesterday between the hosts England and New Zealand was, unsurprisingly, a sellout. The three games at the Riverside are expected to give Durham, who needed a £3.8 million bailout from the ECB in 2016, a boost of about £1 million.

Rock on,Lizzie.
DCCC's sole revenue,as I understand, comes in a match staging fee from ICC who have ownership of the ground during the staging period. Can't see how revenue from StickyWicket can go to ICC,however.

Every county gets £1m and then it's £150k per game plus bonuses linked to ticket sales.
