The sun is out. Record temperatures promised. What an untraditional way to start the season. Is not New Road under water? Is it not snowing in Chester-le-Street?

Let the games begin.

Essex v Surrey has a top of the table feel for the first game of the season.

Josh Tongue is fit!

Crawley is out already! Might be a good time for a CC opener to make some runs.

Indeed, Crawley gone straight away...

Wonder if he makes the first test in summer without some runs

Well with the globe on the verge of financial collapse, why not? I was careful about the 25, but gave no thought at all to the 20.

Maybe someone will change it... please.

Sussex fighting back after Bamber tore the top order to shreds... Simpson has been such a good signing for us, maybe he wont continue the form we seen in 2024, but another vital contribution again
