Like a lazy uncle, the county game is much-maligned and much-loved by the same people at the same time. This site is no different.
Piyush Chawla will be Surrey’s overseas player for 2010, as they continue to try and hoover up the better county performers from last season.
With Hoggy being released by Yorkshire, there will be a queue of counties all jostling each other to sign him up for 2010. Leicestershire have declared their interest, and now Kent have followed suit. In truth, there are probably 14 others who would love to have an experienced former England seamer on their books, especially one who is only 32.
Rob Key has signed a new contract and will continue as Kent captain, despite rumours that he was to up for Surrey’s cricketer relocation project. This is good news.
Sussex coach Mark Robinson knows a few things about getting the best out of players. Sussex won the Twenty20 Cup and the Pro40 this season, and were runners-up in the FP Trophy. So when he publicly states that his team are having to play so much cricket during the summer that they can’t train properly, you would think that the ECB would pay attention. They won’t.

You can enjoy the commentary from Test Match Sofa right here using this player, for cricket's alternative listening experience. There may be the occasional swear, but absolutely no dear old things.
