The ECB chooses the county though. So they can decide whether the tourists play Yorkshire reserves or Leicestershire reserves.

Is it a coincidence that tours have been cut down and away sides are winning fewer series? The better side will still win, and you'll never get the sort of acclimatisation that the home team has, but it's better than nothing. Players say that nets can't replicate the time spent in the middle. Some teams are probably wasting these games though.

We're playing the ACT Invitational XI (or more likely XIV).
