It’s finally here! After a long, dark winter, the cricket season is upon us once more and many are wanting to know when Surrey will be in action through the month of April.

While we can’t permit fans in yet, our live stream for men’s first XI fixtures will return and we’ll have regular updates of women’s and second XI matches so you never miss any of the key action from the sides representing Surrey.

Here’s a look at the matches each of key teams will play over the next 30 days.

Men’s First XI

It’s a red-ball only start to the 2021 season for our men, who will play eight LV= County Championship fixtures in Group 2 before a white ball is bowled this season.

After three further days of practice against Middlesex at The Kia Oval over Easter Weekend, the competitive action kicks off. We travel to Bristol initially for our first first-class fixture there since 2015 when Ben Foakes hit 140.

Leicestershire are the first visitors to SE11 this season the following week, with every match over this period starting on Thursday and scheduled to end on Sunday. Then comes a trip to Lord’s before we’re back at The Kia Oval in the final week of the month against Hampshire.

2nd – 4th April: Middlesex (Friendly)

8th – 11th April: Gloucestershire (LV= County Championship)

15th – 18th April: Leicestershire (LV= County Championship)

22nd – 25th April: Middlesex (LV= County Championship)

29th April – 2nd May: Hampshire (LV= County Championship)

Women’s First XI

Surrey Women will look to further build on their own successes of 2020 with a full T20 and 50 over programme this summer around the regional programme and peak summer block for The Hundred.

They begin this month with two T20 friendlies in one day on Sunday 18th April at Kent’s Beckenham ground before they face the same side in the same scenario the following week, this time held at Chipstead Cricket Club.

18th April: Kent (T20 Friendly)

25th April: Kent (Vitality Women’s T20)

Men’s Second XI

With the red ball dominating proceedings at first team level early in the season, the 2nd XI programme will follow suit to ensure all players have ample miles in their legs. After one friendly, we’ll play another two sets of four days against Essex & Yorkshire with squads set to be made of a mix of professionals, academy products and players from the Surrey Championship.

12th – 15th April: Hampshire (Friendly)

19th – 22nd April: Essex (2nd XI Championship)

26th – 30th April: Yorkshire (2nd XI Championship)
