Hampshire will be given several doses of Groundhog Day next season following today’s Clydesdale Bank40 draw.

Following the decision not to reduce domestic cricket’s congested schedule, Hampshire have drawn several sides who were in their group for last year’s CB40 competition.

Once again, Hampshire will have long away trips to play Scotland and Durham, while defending champions Warwickshire and Leicestershire are also in their group for the second season running.

Surrey and Northants were also drawn in Group B this afternoon.

GROUP A; Holland, Middlesex, Derbyshire, Worcestershire, Sussex, Kent, Yorkshire

GROUP B; Scotland, HAMPSHIRE, Durham, Northants, Warwickshire, Surrey, Leicestershire

GROUP C; Unicorns, Notts, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, Essex, Somerset, Lancashire
