Cricket in five (months)?

I'm still trying to recover from the weekend gone before (more on that tomorrow) so tonight I went for a run in the driving rain.

You don't have to be a sports obsessive to know that cricket is a very popular game in Yorkshire. But you're probably not aware that the cricket fixtures for next season have just been released. The fact that it's deepest November may have something to do with that.

However, as I trotted embarrassingly slowly past Guiseley Cricket Club a little earlier, I made a startling discovery.

That's right, Guiseley 2nd XI's first game of the 2013 season will be on 22 April against near neighbours Green Lane.

I'm not sure what time it starts, but I'll obviously find out and let you know.
