- Men’s season to begin on 1 August, formats to be confirmed
- Women’s cricket will also be played over the summer
The England and Wales Cricket Board has given a green light for the return of professional domestic cricket but it is not entirely clear where this green light leads.
The ECB has approved the return of men’s county cricket on 1 August but it has yet to be decided what form it will take. The 18 counties will meet in the next two weeks and a domestic schedule will be published soon after. There is plenty to discuss. A white ball or a red ball? Behind closed doors or with carefully monitored spectators allowed in the ground?
