Day 5 of the Ashes and the rain did stop play yesterday. Here are our concept images for a flexible cricket field cover. PS - we've also designed a roof to protect spectators from the SUN... imagine that! ☀ lnkd.in/ehrtpWRz #Ashes2023 #cricket #engvsaus

🌤️🌧️ An unsettled forecast on day 4 of the Ashes - so here's the 4th concept image from our engineers, raising the roof. SCX loves to challenge the view that "it can't be done". After all, we did it at Ascot in 2000, and at Tottenham Hotspur in 2019. #ashes #cricket #engvsaus

Day 3 of the Ashes, image 3 from our engineering team! Here the translucent roof keeps daylight on the cricket field, and rain off it. Homework time: how high does a cricket ball usually get hit? @MCCOfficial @MichaelVaughan @TomMallows_ @gregjames #engvsaus #ashes #cricket

Here's our engineering team's 2nd cricket cover concept image. Interestingly, the CEO of MCC has discussed a fabric roof with @BBCSport: bbc.co.uk/sport/av/cricket/4… @MCCOfficial - come see SCX's moving fabric roofs at Wimbledon! scx.co.uk/case-studies/wimbl… #ashes #cricket #engvsaus
