Bag a bargain for yourself as we prepare to pay homage to fan favourites including Chesterfield, Cheltenham, Blackpool and Scarborough<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Festival season is in full swing and we’re celebrating county cricket’s greatest outgrounds with The Cricketer’s forthcoming summer special magazine issue.<\/p>\n

Our editor Huw Turbervill took his popular ‘Huw Meets’ podcast on the road to one of the finest outgrounds in the land \u2013 Queen’s Park, Chesterfield – during the recent County Championship match between Derbyshire<\/a> and Lancashire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This live edition of the podcast, which can be viewed above, featured a Q&A session with Huw, former Derbyshire favourite Adrian Rollins and David Griffin, the club’s photographer and historian, who literally wrote the book on Chesterfield<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Cricketer visited Chesterfield for a very special live ‘Huw Meets’ podcast<\/p>\n

Our outground special includes Paul Edwards’ report from Queen’s Park, as well as features on Blackpool, Cheltenham<\/a> and Scarborough<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With the return of the groundhopping haven that is the One-Day Cup to come too, we profile all of the outgrounds to be graced during the tournament.<\/p>\n

Huw also invited David Griffin to write about his favourite cricketer for us and the resulting column will appear in the issue.<\/p>\n
