    English Domestic Season 2025

    See Worcestershire don't have a home game until the end April (4th round)

    English Domestic Season 2025

    Fixtures generally: Pretty similar and much as expected but no Sunday is designated as available for the National Counties to play a First Class county prior to the Metro Bank. That's a shame and a step back, imo, and although I wouldn't say it possibly an oversight by the NCCA but I guess...

    English Domestic Season 2025

    agree with your assessment from my trips there, except it's a bit out of town but still walkable. However only ever saw more than a dozen present when Lancashire played Hertfordshire in the Nat West Trophy - those were the days.

    English Domestic Season 2025

    Been Radlett half a dozen plus times between 1999 and 2016 mainly to watch Lancashire 2nds play before moving back up North. It is a shortish or more walk from the mainline train station. Not sure where they would put up any raised seating but things may have changed.

    Pravin Tambe played at 44. First selected at 41. Brad Hogg would have been older, Muralitharan and Imran Tahir over 40 as well.

    IPL Auction

    Like any auction, needs to be just two people interested at whatever level, even an unknown can go for triple their asking price. I've always thought they favour Aussies in particular, but I suspect that might change when their franchises get their hands on the ECB franchises.

    English Domestic Season 2025

    Lot of counties yet to announce their overseas players, seem to be waiting on the unsold list at the IPL.

    IPL Auction

    Maybe it's Lancashire's problem.... Ponting on Shreyas Iyer “I think we knew Shreyas, Pant and KL Rahul were going to attract big money. I wanted to work with Shreyas. I've worked with him before and he is a great guy and a great player. He'll be a great leader for our team if we decide to...

    **Official** England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

    Matty Hurst! That would be a queue jump equivalent to Jacob Bethell. Does that make it more likely? Good to see these international schedules are allowing players a few days off after jetting half way round the world.

    IPL 2025 retentions / mega auction

    we'll never know because they only released the names of the short listed 574 not the long list of original hopefuls (1574). Can't believe that for example Hurst with a BBL contract and a succesful summer in 2024 didn't put his name forward. I would have done in his position.

    English Domestic Season 2024

    Just signed Singh from Notts on a 3 year deal. So I doubt there's space for Singh, Hinley and Virdi at New Road. changing the subject: anyone heard anything about when the 2025 fixtures might drop?
