Lancashire played their first county match at home against Middlesex in 1865 and won by 62 runs. The first war of the Roses against Yorkshire was staged two years later. In 1902 Test cricket came to Old Trafford and it was an exciting occasion. England faced the Australians and the home side lost by three runs after a brilliant Victor Trumpeters century. England first played Pakistan at Old Trafford in a Test match in 1954 - it ended in a draw.
Fans have yet to witness a win between the two sides as they have all ended in draws.
