This will have a bizarre feel to it.
Surrey, Yorkshire and Kent have released their fixtures. Kent giving the best explanation on how things will be:
So it's a % based, mixed teams basis in the 4 day SEC, expanded T20 and no 50 over trophy!
1. Lancashire do not play Surrey 2. They do play a combined Kent and Northamptionshire side at Canterbury: Mon 29th Jun - Thu 2nd Jul 2020 3. They play Yorkshire in the SEC on Mon 4 - Thu 7 May at Headingley plus a second away match at Scarborough on Mon 14 - Thu 17 September;
and in the SET20 at Weetwood on 26th May (twice as usual presumably);
plus 3 x 50 over friendlies on 14th, 28th and 29th July (at Old Trafford and two TBC) all billed as away games on the Yorkshire website.
The race is on to see which counties declare their fixtires next (and to understand how the season works)

Given who is playing, thought I'd put this here. Not sure how many of them would play for the County T20 First XI. For the record cricket.lancashirecricket.co.uk/news/2020-news/lancashire-cricket-v-reliance-xi-live-updates/ until they break the link. Not listed under fixtures, but then nor are the second team games shown (and they have been available elsewhere since 2nd February - only 19 days ago). Lancashire We Have New Shirt Out Club more interested in plugging Visit Manchester than the County Club's Cricket fixtures.

The club's website has finally added a news item today (5th March) saying the second XI fixtures are now finalised. This is despite the fixtures were in the public domain on 2nd February.
Sadly, also the article that they have on their website inludes this incorrect statement:
"The Red Rose seconds will compete in the Second XI Championship and the Second XI T20, both of which are regionalised during the group stages."
The Second XI Championship is not regionalised during the group stages. There are no group stages. There is no regionalisation. All matches count (even those which feature combined teams from two counties - overlooked in the club's article), and the championship will be decided on a percentage basis, as counties will be playing a varied amount of games. Lancashire website is missing this key informaiton (by choice no doubt):
"The winner of this year’s Second Eleven Championship will be decided on average points earned, as counties do not have an obligation to play everyone else. They must, however, play nine matches, five of which must be as the individual County."

Well spotted!
Was just about to post about the lack of information about this match. Interesting to see Parry playing. Lester must be injured. Only heard about it as Kendal's captain was interviewed on local radio tonight and he mentioned Aspinwall had made his Lancs 2nd XI debut this week. Good player at his age. Predictably absolutely nothing on any of Lancashire communication channels, less predictably Yorkshire also silent on their website.

Only by chance I picked it up Looks like there was second game yesterday:
can't find a scorecard though.
I see Toby Lester bowed six overs on the second day of the previous match.

Seconds off to play Notts 2s tomorrow:
finally the club website is sprung into action.
The Seconds take on Notts tomorrow in a two-day friendly fixture
Chris Benbow has named a 13-man squad ahead of Lancashire Second XI's two-day match against Nottinghamshire which starts tomorrow at Lady Bay.
The side will be captained by wicket-keeper batsman George Lavelle while Stephen Parry and Toby Lester are also amongst the travelling party.
Last week, the Red Rose Second XI played out a draw with Roses rivals Yorkshire at Chester Boughton Hall, with Parry claiming four wickets in the match. There were also runs for Lavelle (45) and young opening batsman Owais Shah (39).
Scorecard vs Yorkshire Lancashire Second XI squad
George Lavelle (c), Tom Aspinwall, George Bell, Josh Boyden, Sam Dorsey, JJ Fielding, Ed Fluck, Toby Lester, Robert Lord, Jack Morley, Stephen Parry, Sam Perry, Owais Shah
