So I must have dreamt up the Sri Lanka A and Pakistan A triangular series that was hosted by the Lions in July 2016.....in England... or the Sri Lanka A tour of England in 2014.
Don't see Sri lanka A playing first class games against england lions in england during 2016.
or in 2014.
All they got was list A games.
Next year will be the first time lions played a first class game against an A team for a very long time at home.

what do people usually say that the ECB have no role in the teams picked for the warm ups but ECB made an agreement CA for Strong teams for warm ups and suddenly bam Kent, Essex and Northampton picked a very strong team for the warm up games.

Well it looks like BCCI and ECB have gotten on with it with England not getting any warm up games for the Test matches.
Anyway the England cricket team are the ones losing out with limited lions playing programme and no warm up games in India.
lions cannot even announce winter fixture yet with them having issues finding possible teams to play against.
