It’s confirmed. 3 up, 1 down, seeding system from 2020, best cricket-playing period still being occupied by bloody stupid white ball tourneys.
Wahey?

I like the round of minor counties games. Otherwise it's about what was expected, I guess we'll have to see how it works.

Right then, we're a month away. Who's excited?
We're nearly there with fantasy cricket again - in doing so I realised that the calendar this year is very odd even by normal standards - two rounds at the start of April then a gap until mid May, fairly consistent until the T20 block in the school holidays after that.

I’m aiming to go to only my second Champo match: Durham at Lord’s!
It’s in September. Entirely during the week.
Fuxache.
Durham’s enduring bobbinsness makes it a little tricky to get too excited, but I’m up for the discussion it’ll generate!

Okay, not fully ready to go public yet, but would be great if you folks can sign up and let me know if anything isn't looking right. League Code XSEARIOI cricketxi.com/county-championship-2019/league/Let me know if you see any missing players or wildly out prices, I've tried fairly hard to get the list right!

In the early going, Olivier is the 5th most popular pick, so seems you're about right. Think he's a sensible pickup considering his availability, but don't think he's quite going to be as gamebreaking as Morkel.

It’s been pouring for years. And the rain is brown and suspiciously sticky.

County Champions vs the MCC in Dubai on 5Live Sports Extra (although about to be thrown online to make room for the IPL, which the BBC are covering too this year)
Dan Lawrence looking good for the first 50 of the season with runs for Will Rhodes and Tom Abell as well against Morne Morkel and co. A good start for early 20s English cricketers.
