Tour Program: MCC Cricket Tour of USA in March 2010 - Dreamcricket News
Can someone shed some light on the MCC squad? Who are these guys and who are the ones to watch out for?

Really looking forward to this one personally
Fast forward to 2009, when a tour to North America was planned to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the 1859 tour of George Parr XI. That much anticipated tenth tour of MCC to USA was postponed and will now take place in March of 2010 (March 14-31). For the first time ever, this MCC side will not play any matches in Philadelphia, opting to play all its matches in California and Florida, endowed with better March weather and turf wickets.
