That leads on to what has become quite normal in cricket in recent years - teams finishing one season without knowing for sure what the format will be for the following one. Although the current plan is for the top two in Division Two to be promoted, there’s talk, for example, of there being three smaller divisions next season because there appears to be a definite drive among the powers that be to reduce the amount of four day cricket even further, so it might be that a second place finish this season would see us merely scrape into a new Division Two.
