County Championship 2026

[Arthur Crabtree]

Impressive but futile chase for Leics and fat lady finally singing for Hants.

Somerset v Surrey

Going to be the Bears...

and fat lady finally singing for Hants.

Not before time. They should have gone down last year, instead of being saved by Durham’s incompetence

Wonder if Lancashire v Durham next week will be Jimmy's last game? I think he has suggested he wants to continue playing next season but there must be some doubt. .

[Durhamfootman]

and yet.... he's 44 and has 50 wickets this season at 17's

I'm sure he'd manage another season in div 2 and be good for Lancs.

how old was Darren Stevens when he was still taking loads of wickets for Kent? 46 or something?

[Durhamfootman]

Northants are 175-1 after 56 overs, needing 174 in 55 overs. I'm guessing that a draw probably won't do, so I assume they'll have to go for it

There has been rain forecast all afternoon at Wantage Rd and it has finally arrived with Northants only needing 23 runs to secure an impressive final day win

Nothing for Bashir on a day that looked set up for him.

Middx one wicket short!

[Durhamfootman]

Warks will prepare a CEO's pitch and try for max bonus points knowing a high scoring draw will do

Somerset will prepare a 2 day bunsen, hoping to grab a swift 19 points and hope that the pressure will see Warks falter

Essex will be thanking their lucky stars that they got away without relegation

Kent will be pleased they've got Gloucs.... Northants rueing the rain's timing

I thibk he was. Imran Tahir still going in franchise cricket and think he's 47.
