Round six of the Rothesay County Championship is in the books, and all the sides have now played five matches. In this episode, Matt looks back at the last ball finish between Essex and Yorkshire, Surrey's continued struggles, and Lancashire's dramatic week.

He also ponders if England has found not one but two potential all-rounders in Ben Kellaway and George Hill, and discusses Nottinghamshire's title credentials.

After a mostly dry start to the season, rain finally played a part (well, it is April after all), and only two matches did not finish in a draw. There was still plenty of quality cricket played in round 3 of the Rothesay County Championship.

In this episode, Matt delves into Ethan Brookes doing his best Ben Stokes impression, highlights the farcical scene at Lord's, and asks, 'What is going on with Glamorgan?'.

Round 2 of the Rothesay County Championship backed up a wonderful week 1 with another group of pulsating matches.

In this episode, Matt goes through Warwickshire's one-wicket victory over Durham in the game of the week, talks about how Sussex have grabbed his attention and put themselves in dark-horse title contention before casting his eye on the historic defeat of Worcestershire at Headingley by Yorkshire.
