    Finally a full programme of O60s and O70s county championship cricket!

    Grant's back to cover the matches - very good timing as we finally had virtually a full programme of O60s and O70s county championship cricket. Some matches went to the wire - we cover them all including a match where 2 players scored 99 in the same innings.  This week's packed episode also includes cameo appearances from Somerset's Andy Sapey and Kent's Gary Joyce. We also mention helmets, or the lack of them amongst batters, after a player top edged and suffered a significant cut across the bridge of his nose.  Did we have two records last week when Norfolk O70s batter Geoff Roper scored 206 not out and added 327 for the first wicket with Randolph Lofthouse?  Full results here Please do share, review and rate the podcast - that helps others find it If you've got feedback or observations about the podcast or ideas for future guests Send us Fan Mail - you can send your message by text or voicemail or email us via  podcast@trevorjlee.com  Thanks very much.
