I am surprised they didn't get the message when overseas players were leaving in their droves to get to the cpl. The hundred is nothing on the international schedule so to break everything for it is madness.
Yes, all test cricket to be played in June andJuly I believe - the only non Hundred cricket in August is going to be this first class Festival stuff shich I’m not sure involves just three extra games in total or three games per county. Apparently, it needs twelve counties to be in favour of the amendments for them to be carried and Atherton thought that might be a problem because it means a loss revenue for non test match and Hundred grounds like Taunton, Bristol, Canterbury, Chelmsford etc.

Derbyshire 79-3, Leicestershire 11-2 chasing 275.
