County Cricket 2017 season

[Dr Cricket]

Start of the county season.

[braveneutral]

Just when Leicestershire were showing signs of improvement after years of misery.

Yep do remember them being warned multiple times though.

[Alviro Patterson]

snow is forecast for week commencing 10th April (I saw it on countryfile), so don't rule out problems at New Rd

Forecast for the weekend looks a belter, 18C on Sunday! May well end up getting a Headingley tan so Factor 20 at the ready

They can't claim they haven't been warned true but is it fair that innocent members of the team and particularly their supporters should be punished?. A massive fine and lengthy suspension for the individual miscreants is surely fairer and more effective.

Don't know if it is fair but perhaps it is the only thing that will bring about change. They might react to what I imagine is a very angry group of fans at the moment and finally sort themselves out. You rarely hear this about other teams but often Leicestershire.

If it's in the rules which it is then they can have no complaints because frankly every five minutes they were being told about this.

If Leicester are keen to rectify this then the 1st thing they should do is change their captain. Either Cosgrove condones this behaviour or he doesn't command the respect to be able to prevent it. Either way he should step down. And a paltry one match ban is ridiculous

That I agree with.

At the Oval Warks choose to bowl first with an uncontested toss. No young players made the team so just taken for experience. Meaker not in Surrey team is he injured again? He''s in my FL team as a wild card, seems it maybe too wild a pick.

[hopeforthebest]

No Mullaney for Notts that's a blow for my FL hopes.

how much are the tickets for the championship these days, might be tempted to go down today or on monday.
last time I went to a county game was in 2010 when I bunked school to see Essex vs Middlesex in Chelmsford.

[Dr Cricket]

Sky sports news got the breaking news out for Broad taking the first wicket for the season.

[Dr Cricket]

porter takers Davies cheaply as well in the lancashire game.

I know the last session of every day is free. Well it is at Kent.

Hope you weren't the headmaster! It's a standard £15 for a day's championship play. Surely you can borrow a season card.It's £5 after tea at Durham I believe.
