England have complained they are facing disruption to their World Cup final warm-up at Lord’s on Sunday from an unlikely source: the singer Rita Ora.
Ora is headlining the tournament closing ceremony, which lasts from 2.30pm to 3pm, with the final due to get under way half an hour later. It means that 30 minutes of pre-match warm-up time on the main square will be lost – although the players will have the Nursery Ground available to them throughout.
