1928 County Championship

The 1928 County Championship was the 35th officially organised running of the County Championship. Lancashire County Cricket Club won the championship title for a third successive year.

This would be the last instance of where the Championship was decided by calculating the percentage of points gained against possible points available.

Table

  • Eight points were awarded for a win
  • Four points were awarded for a tie
  • Five points for the team leading after the first innings of a drawn match
  • Three points for the team losing after the first innings of a drawn match
  • Four points for the teams if tied after the first innings of a drawn match
  • Four points for a no result on first innings (after more than six hours playing time)
  • If the weather reduces a match to less than six hours and there has not been a result on first innings then the match shall be void.
