After last week’s announcement of both the men’s and women’s Vitality Blast fixtures in 2025, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has today released next summer’s fixtures for the Rothesay County Championship, and the Metro Bank One-Day Cup.

Middlesex will play six County Championship matches at Lord’s in 2025, with Lancashire the first visitors on the opening day of the county season, Friday 4 April. It will be the Red Rose county’s first trip to Lord’s to face Middlesex in the four-day format since 2019.

Glamorgan will be the visitors later in the month, evoking memories from the 2024 meeting between the sides, which saw Sam Northeast make the highest first-class score at Lord’s with an unbeaten 335.

Kent will make the short journey to St John’s Wood in early May, before Leicestershire are the opponents a fortnight later. Later on in the summer, Derbyshire and Gloucestershire will both head to Lord’s to face Middlesex in September.

As per the last two seasons, the Ground will also host one of Middlesex’s Group B matches in the Metro Bank One-Day Cup – against Sussex Sharks on Sunday 10 August - with the competition being played alongside The Hundred.
