Runaway Southern Premier Division 3 winners Portsmouth & Southsea face an intriguing derby against Waterlooville in their 2023 SPL2 opener at St James's Park on May 6.
The clubs have met on several occasions in t20 cup ties in recent seasons, but not in the longer format 50-over.
Arguably the pick of the Division 2 openers is promoted Langley Manor's match against Old Tauntonians & Romsey at Knellers Lane. OTs just missed out on promotion this summer, finishing third behind Hambledon and Andover.
Fair Oak's curtain raiser is against Hook & Newnham Basics II at the KGV, while relegated Liphook & Ripsley host St Cross Symondians II, and demoted Sparsholt look to get back on track when Hartley Wintney visit Locks Lane.
