Roll up, roll up, unwrap those sandwiches, shiver in deserted stands with seven other blokes over 70 reading the Telegraph, vaguely reqcquaint yourselves with flashy batsmen who played three ODIs for England half a decade ago, laugh at Surrey, tut at pink balls and floodlights, be lightly patronised in State Of The Cricket Nation Post-IPL think pieces ... and air your thoughts here.
How do people see this season? Everyone thinks Durham are a shoe-in for another title. They possibly are, seeing as it's not easy to identify obvious strengthening among their challengers, though Hashim Amla's not a bad coup for Notts for the early part of the season.
I don't think Essex have much chance of staying up, given their unforeseen promotion last year and lack of bowling depth. A year to reassert one-day credentials this, I suspect.
And we really should do a CountyCrick-athon at some point.
