Outdoor sports will be allowed to resume in England from 29 March, Prime minister Boris Johnson announced in Parliament yesterday during his four-part plan to lift the coronavirus lockdown.
The Government’s target of March 29 for grassroots sport to resume is good news for cricket at local level.
An ECB statement read: "The ECB welcomes the Government's decision to permit grassroots cricket to return across England in time for the start of the 2021 season.
“Having listened to the announcement yesterday, the ECB will be working on making a public statement once clarification on some key points has been provided by a variety of interested parties.”
