The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has given its approval for the professional men’s county cricket season to begin on 1 August.
The formats to be played during the delayed men’s county season are due to be agreed by the 18 First-Class Counties in early July, with a new fixture schedule to be published thereafter.
Delray Rawlins’ Sussex’s fast/seam bowler teammates are returning to training as preparations for the delayed 2020 season gather pace.
Following the ECB’s confirmation that the professional men’s county cricket season can begin from August 1st, Stuart Meaker, Aaron Thomason, Will Sheffield, George Garton, and Mitchell Claydon reported for training at The 1st Central County Ground from Wednesday 1 July.
They joined Chris Jordan, Laurie Evans, and Phil Salt, who have been training since the beginning of June following their inclusion in England's 55-man group for the upcoming international schedule.
The majority of the remaining Sussex squad members will return on July 8th, with details on the white-ball contracted players set to be confirmed once the 18 First-Class counties agree on the formats to be played.
