Yes, though more often with a full slate of matches. Just feels especially inconsiderate when it’s a one-off game.Hasn't this always happened?

The ECB?Clearly, the pitch wasn't fit for purpose. 40 wickets in a little over two days tells a tale. And only two half centuries in those 40 wickets. You can't beat an even contest between bat and ball. But, if the game is going to be weighted in favour of one element or the other (bat or ball), which would you rather watch; a game where each side posts 450+,and the pitch acting like tarmac, and which grinds out to a draw, or this type of game?

Surrey v Hampshire in the Championship started today at the Oval. Surrey 85-2 at lunch.
I appreciate that the game has been scheduled into an already congested calendar, but starting a Championship game with 50% of it potentially overlapping with the first summer Test seven miles away seems a bit odd.

Posted at 14:15 when it’s ‘free after tea’ for County Championship games, as at Lancashire. Can’t knock their commercial cuteness.
