During the last two days spent at Headingley conversation with two friends from Huddersfield turned to the forthcoming iccT20 qualifiers to be played in Scotland and Ireland next month. The successful sides will go on to compete in the 2016 World T20.

51 matches will be played among 14 nations

Group A matches will be played in Ireland between the host country, Nepal, Hong Kong, PNG, Namibia, USA and Jersey

Group B matches will be played in Scotland between the hosts and UAE, Netherlands, Afghanistan, Canada, Kenya and Oman

The competition begins on July 9th when Scotland and UAE meet at The Grange, Edinburgh and the following day Ireland will play Namibia at Stormont, Belfast. Edinburgh will see matches on two grounds in addition to The Grange, Myreside and Goldenacres. Matches will also be played at New Williamfield in Stirling.

In Ireland in addition to Stormont there are matches at Clontarf, , Malahide and Bready CC in County Tyrone.

Appetite whetted, can't wait until July 9th? Then fear not for warm up matches begin on July 6th on both sides of the Irish Sea. Full details of all matches at 2015 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier

Off to Clifton Park today for the final day of the SET match between York II and Northants and looking forward to Sunday when there are group finals in the Village Cup. On my doorstop I have the North Yorkshire (North) decider between Ouseburn and Sessay while in North Yorkshire (South) Sheriff Hutton Bridge take on holders Woodhouse Grange.
