Cornwall Cricket will host Somerset County Cricket Club in a special showcase match on Monday, August 4th at Wadebridge Cricket Club, with play starting at 11:00 AM. Gates open from 9:00 AM.

The annual fixture, part of a national ECB initiative, gives National Counties the opportunity to take on first-class opposition — and Cornwall’s finest will go head-to-head with professional players from Somerset in front of a home crowd.

Cornwall Cricket Board Managing Director Joe Skinner said: Since Cornwall and Somerset have been playing this fixture, it has always been a fun day, showing professional sport in Cornwall. Somerset have always provided a competitive side with some outstanding talent, last year Jack Leach and James Rew took the field. The date is getting close and we would encourage anyone who has not got their ticket yet to click the link and book up.

The event reflects Cornwall Cricket Board’s ongoing commitment to growing the sport at all levels across the county — from grassroots to representative cricket. In partnership with the ECB, the Board supports inclusive opportunities for people aged five and up to get involved in the game.
