Our Aims

The aim of County Cricket Matters is to be a voice for those concerned at how top-class cricket is changing in this country. The purpose is not to denigrate those running the game or question the motives behind attempts to broaden the appeal of a sport which has often been its own worst enemy. It is also not to look back to some ‘golden age’, which almost certainly never existed.

​

Cricket must evolve, but it must do so in ways true to the spirit and traditions of the game. A key part of this is continuing to base our national game around the county structure, as it has been for more than 150 years.
