The County Championship groups Group 1: Essex, Warwickshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Worcestershire, Durham. Group 2: Somerset, Hampshire, Surrey, Gloucestershire, Middlesex, Leicestershire. Group 3: Kent, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Northamptonshire, Glamorgan, Sussex. How will it work? Each county will play 10 four-day games in the group stage - five home and five away. The top two teams in each group will go through to a second group stage called Division One. The six teams in Division One play a further four matches, with the side that finishes top of Division One crowned 2021 County Championship winners. The top two teams in Division One will contest five-day Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord's. The remaining 12 teams that do not go into Division One will move into Divisions Two and Three, in which teams will play another four matches This post has been edited by mick745: 16th October 2020, 02:56 PM |

This will give all counties a chance to be champions rather than just those in the first division so I think this is a good format.

It is a great format, will it be long term. If it is long term it should.work in the near future.
