Div. 1:
Essex vs. Hants. (Chelmsford) (started today) Yorks. vs. Warks. (Clifton Park) Kent vs. Notts. (Tunbridge Wells)
Div. 2:
Worcs. vs. Sus. (Kidderminster) (starts 18th) Middx. vs. Glam. (Radlett) (started today but rain) Derbs. vs. Lancs. (Derby) Leics. vs. Gloucs. (Grace Road)
More funny timings to screw up your fantasy games! Worcs. vs. Sussex is probably the marquee match of the round, switched to Kidderminster because New Road looks like this:
Otherwise Hampshire are gunning to reduce their points deficit with Somerset, Glamorgan are favourites against Middlesex in a surefire sign that the world is ending, and other people are playing cricket.

Hants will not win the league. Bi us for me remembering about fixtures and making fantasy changes. Bit confused on scoring tho, harmer got 5 for 20 oddd but only got 189 points.... Seems a bit light??

I am filled with nothing but pessimism about batting first against Warks this morning, horrible, overcast and rain in the air = 5 down by lunch

Yeah especially without Vince and Dawson for half the season, best Hants are looking at is probably 3rd. Nowhere near as consistent as Somerset, we always get rolled over a couple of times a season
Adi Birrell says we chose to bat first yesterday because of stats showing you're far more likely to win batting first at Chelmsford... let's just ignore the overcast sky and forecast then, what could possibly go wrong?!

They’re pulling it back well enough! You’re never out of it with an Abbott in the tank.
I knew Notts. being bobbins couldn’t last. Sigh.

Should have skippered Harmer! 10/35 match figs, not too shaby! Meanwhile Yorks go from a solid 93/1 to a wtf 93/4 in the space of 5 mins. Top stuff chaps.

Did Hants even try to save that?! AO in under 30 overs is awful. Carrying your bat for 29 not out must be depressing

Feeling better this round, SoulCircus? Ha, I am for once. Having Zak Crawley in my fantasy team helped, too.
