Latest County Championship Fixtures for 2023 season along with complete schedule, match dates and venues list.

The first seven rounds have all been scheduled from Thursday-Sunday in successive weeks in the build-up to the Test Series against world champions New Zealand.
There will be a further five rounds in June and July – ensuring more four-day cricket in the height of summer – before the Division One and Two titles are set to be decided in September. There will be 10 counties in Division One and eight in Division Two with a two-up, two-down promotion-and-relegation system. Each county will play 14 County Championship matches, with seven home matches and seven away matches.
