The cricket county championship fixtures are out. Glamorgan makes a welcome return to Neath for two Royal London cup matches, on 17th and 19th August. The first visitors are Lancashire, whom the Welsh county have usually entertained in Colwyn Bay. It is sad to see that neither Colwyn Bay nor, surprisingly, Swansea appear on the fixture list. One presumes that neither location was able to give the financial guarantees demanded by Glamorgan, but surely there would have been pent-up demand resulting from the freedom from Covid-19 restrictions, to see cricket at those grounds by the sea?
Whatever, here's hoping for more success for the county, including retention of the Royal London.
