    T20 Blast 2025

    Sun stopped play at Canterbury. Again. As its timing is predictable, perhaps start times could be staggered so that the difficult period falls on the interval between innings.

    T20 Blast 2025

    I went to Chesterfield yesterday and it was rammed to the gills. I haven’t seen an outground so packed for years. Seemed to be more from Yorkshire than Derbyshire.

    Domestic Cricket Changes (2025-26)

    Halving the number of first class teams! I suppose it puts proposed cuts to the county championship into context.

    I really don’t like the idea of a playoff to decide the championship or promotion.

    T20 Blast 2025

    The contest that everyone’s looking forward to tonight is between the ground staff at Lord’s and The Oval. Who will get their ground ready for play first after the rain expected for most of the day in London?

    The Hundred could be scrapped

    Thanks for info. I have never liked the idea of a play off or final in the first class game - it does not work well with the format. To be fair, an earlier conclusion to the Blast and a slight reduction in fixtures are not bad ideas.

    Went to Lord’s today. Middlesex could have been in even greater trouble as Leicestershire dropped four catches by my reckoning, including Higgins thrice. The ball moved notably less after lunch. Hull’s pace looked well down.

    Some pitches have been pretty green, at least at the start of the matches. Moreover it has only really warmed up in the last few weeks.

    English Domestic Season 2025

    Went to Northampton today. There was not a cloud in the sky but the pitch was greenish and there was movement for the seamers for most of the day. It was however chiefly the bounce in the pitch that the batsmen found difficult in the first half of the day. When the tail wagged I assumed that...
