Shall

Tomorrow we shall go to the stadium to play a cricket match.

Is the sentence correct?

  

Top answer

It is technically correct, but it feels a bit like something from a 50-year-old textbook. Few modern speakers would actually utter such a sentence. Most people would say it another way, such as "We're going to the stadium tomorrow to play a cricket match".
