Most confusingly for readers of the Thunderer, according to that august organ two of our home games are at Colchester! However the ECB site makes it clear that they are all at the County Ground.

Glorified friendlies. I'll be hibernating until next season when I hope the world comes to its senses.

Such a shame Hants is at Arundel - when spectators probably won't be allowed in, would have loved to have gone. Sussex at Hove also attractive.

Dan Lawrence is now available for these matches so that's great news.

I hate Hove so won't miss that - Arundel is a nice ground though and I've always enjoyed going there.

Good to see that the fixtures have weekend play for the working members, oh wait.

I did hear that they were going to allow entrance to the remaining Premier members. Unfortunately he said that he could not make it.

Don’t forget to wear your mask when you eventually come out Nat.

Just a thought for the ECCC marketing people: a mask with a classic Gooch 'tache from back in the day could work well. And if enough people wore it could scare the opposition too.

Especially if the female members wear them as well!

Kent have produced face masks for sale carrying their 150th anniversary logo. They look good.
