00:00 The cricket season gets underway this weekend with the first matches in the county championships two divisions scheduled from Friday to Monday.
00:11 However, the early April start to the championship with spring weather playing its usual tricks has seen the first day's play abandoned at four games and two significantly delayed with only three getting underway as scheduled.
00:26 When the season does break into its stride and fully get going Surrey are the favourites for the division one title with Yorkshire the shortest odds for division two.
00:38 Back in division one for the first time in several years are Durham having won division two last year under Ryan Campbell and could be an outside bet for the division one title.
00:50 Many of course will be hoping for a long and dry summer with plenty of cricket not disturbed by the weather.
