Pre-Fixture release aperitif

In a pre-release teaser, the first fixture of each competition has been announced 24 hours ahead of the rest of the games.

  • The LV Championship sees Mark Footitt's new side, Surrey visit Trent Bridge on 10th April.
  • NWT20 Blast lifts off with the same opposition as last season's curtain raiser at Trent Bridge, Warwickshire Birmingham Bears, on 20th May.
  • The One Day Cup makes an earlier start 2016 when on 6th June Northamptonshire Steelbacks visit Trent Bridge for a floodlit game.

 In a change to the groups for the ODC, the two groups have the same North and South make-up as for the T20 in an attempt to reduce teams carbon-footprint, motoring up and down the highways and byways. 2016 will see two blocks a fixtures; one at the start of June with other at the end of July.

    Barring playing them in a knockout stage of T20 or ODC, Notts will not play Essex, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, Keny or Sussex in 2016.

    Notts will only play Hampshire, Middlesex, Somerset and Surrey in the LV=.

      We had better get used to playing Yorkshire, Lancashire and Durham a lot now.

    Lord's, Oval and Bristol are all nearer to TB than CLS - just saying!

      If Kent played at Beckenham then the distance is roughly the same as to the Riverside, CLS from Trent Bridge.
