MCC to sell 'Lord's'.

In a bid to convert Lord's, the home of cricket, into a 21 st century stadium, Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) is proposing to sell the naming rights to sponsors.

Vision for Lord's, as the proposals are titled, will be funded partly by luxury flats around the periphery that estate agents estimate could sell for £1.2 million each. The redevelopment is designed to increase seating by about 7,500, create an underground cricket academy, a brassiere and a bigger museum.
