THE CRICKET PAPER ON ITS WAY

Ann Boulton wonders how many cricket-lovers in Lincolnshire have heard about this

An exciting new addition to the world of cricket is set to be launched on May 16.
The Cricket Paper, a weekly publication packed with news, reports and features about the sport, will be launched by the same stable that brings readers the highly-regarded Sunday newspapers The Rugby Paper, The Non-League Paper and The Football League Paper and the football fans’ magazine, Late Tackle.
The Cricket Paper, a national newspaper in England and Wales, will be the UK’s only all cricketing newspaper covering cricket matches from around the world, from elite level to local domestic cricket. Chief correspondent will be Peter Hayter, the award-winning writer with The Mail on Sunday.
One of the unique aspects of The Cricket Paper’s 40 page coverage of the cricket scene is its depth - with more than 60 match reports, round-ups from all 25 ECB county leagues and comprehensive results service.
Targeted at the millions of fans and spectators who enjoy the game, and specifically for the estimated 1.2million active participants in the game and their 15,000 cricket clubs in the UK, The Cricket Paper, at £1.50, will be available every Wednesday in newsagents and supermarkets.
