Good to see we get a Sunday home T20, fixture dates changed around again with Finals day 2 weeks later than last year, makes you wonder when the Championship will be played in the 2nd half of the season?

Taunton on Fri, Chelmsford two days later, then straight back to the west to Cardiff on the Tuesday. Players will love that travelling and although I don't believe large numbers of supporters travel, those loyal few that do so will be racking up the miles. Not good planning but no great surprise.

Aren't the players on a luxury coach these days? It's really only supporters that have the miles to drive.
