Let’s hope we’re allowed in now. And local cricket starts

 

[leecoo]

Always took for granted popping down to my local Club to watch some cricket. Didn't realise how much I'd miss it

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

Won’t be bothering with my Durham ticket now would just be happy to watch some local games

As is your right,of course. The intention is, though, according to Bostock during the Zoom forum, that season card holders would be allowed entry to any game at any county venue. That depends of course on Boris allowing entry.
Boris hadn't learnt " vectors" at the time of Bostocks statement

Cracking news! Hopefully a short 1st class competition and a T20 competition.

Sadly TV and the counties will want T20.

To be honest I’m not sure why we have to wait so long. Surely they could be playing atleast a fortnight earlier.

how long have they been training etc

I think the intention is to be playing a couple of derby friendlies in that fortnight.

 

[wayne entwhistle no9]

I hope they can come up with some kind of competition rather than friendlies. What about in place of championship 3 groups of six counties based on geographical areas then a final between best two group winners or if they have time semi finals with all 3 group winners and best runner up.

As someone who works all week and is desperate to watch some sport I’d love some evening T20s.

I think they will do something like that ditch the one day tournament and play a full t20 competition

That's definitely what the money men will want. Hopefully there is some kind of 1st class cricket.

 

[Silly Point]

Getting a bit greedy now like I know. Would have snapped your hands off for a few late season friendlies behind closed doors but streamed on the counties website back in April

 

[score-board]

Durham will take on Yorkshire in a two-day, behind-closed-doors friendly at Emerald Headingley on 27 and 28 July. #ForTheNorth
