The Thorn County Championship Final
Lancashire v Gloucestershire
Gloucestershire's dominance in this competition over the last decade will be severely challenged by BILL BEAUMONT and his team which contains eight other internationals, although missing Tony Bond who has a broken leg. When the teams last met in 1977 Lancashire were the winners in the semi-final, and then went on to win the final.
MIKE RAFTER will be leading a traditionally uncompromising Gloucestershire pack, and with PETER BUTLER available to cash in on any penalty decisions the final promises to be a close-fought affair.

A series of eight programmes narrated by David Attenborough The great Irrawaddy river is the backbone of Burma. Rising high in the Himalayas, it flows south through 1,000 miles of jungle-clad mountains and and desert plains before entering the Bay of Bengal close to the capital, Rangoon.
The Irrawaddy is Kipling's Road to Mandalay, where the flying fishes play, an' the dawn comes up like thunder, outer China, 'cross the Bay '.
On its banks lie the ruins of Pagan, once the centre of a mighty empire, where powerful kings tried to outdo their predecessors by building ever more magnificent temples.
Today Burma is a socialist country, slowly emerging from a long period of near-isolation from the rest of the world. Perhaps because of that isolation, it has preserved traditions and an old-world charm and sophistication which are uniquely its own.
