Your cricket-mad Gazette has teamed up with Test match sponsor npower to offer two lucky readers an amazing prize - tickets for England's upcoming match against New Zealand.
We have a pair for the first day of the Lord's clash - this Thursday - with another pair to give away for the second day, on Friday.
England, boasting the talents of Essex batsman Alastair Cook, will be hoping to carry on where they left off against the Kiwis, having won their recent Test series in New Zealand.
And now, as an exciting summer of Test action gets under way, they will be hoping to build on that success at Lord's.
For your chance to win this fantastic prize, all you have to do is answer the simple question below:
Who is the current England Test match captain?
a) Michael Vaughan
b) Paul Collingwood
c) Andrew Strauss
The deadline for entry is 10am on Wednesday for Thursday's tickets and 10am on Thursday for Friday's tickets.
Email your answer to gazette.sport@nqe.com.
Please include your daytime contact number and be ready to come and collect the tickets from our reception on North Hill, Colchester.
Meanwhile, this summer, you could also get exclusive npower Ashes 2009 goodies when you switch to npower electricity and/or gas. Howzat!
