A fact from ECB 40 appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 12 May 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Unicorns, an unpaid English cricket team made up of out-of-contract professionals and aspiring youngsters, was created to take part in the 2010 Clydesdale Bank 40 competition?

Out of date groups

With the new CB40 draw ,the current tables are out of date so can someone fix them up please? The draw results are here. The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 09:41, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, thanks. I've overhauled the article to make it more generic, leaving the actual groups to the specific seasons articles. I've created 2011 Clydesdale Bank 40 to help with this.—User:MDCollins (talk) 11:42, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Guys, I think it would be great if we merged this article with Pro40 and reverted everything to Royal London One-Day Cup. Pro40 has the previous formats included, and I think it would really be nice to have one article where what is essentially a line of competitions instead of three.

It could start with something like: The Royal London One-Day Cup is the current 50-over competition in county cricket.

Then we could have a section called "predecessors" with a brief description and all the winners included. I have actually made a huge table in my sandbox of all county cricket tournament winners, and I think wikipedia would really benefit from a better overview of things (I have also noticed no consensus on the county clubs' pages about how to describe their honours.

Any objections?

Naming of English cricket competitions

A discussion is taking place at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cricket about how English domestic cricket competitions are named - specifically whether or not sponsor's names should be used in the titles of competitions and how they might be grouped together. A formal merge proposal will follow, but anyone interested might like to start with the discussion there. Thanks. Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:37, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
