"Middlesex prove too powerful for inconsistent challengers." Times [London, England] 31 Aug. 1993 The Times The season format was changed such that each county played only one match against each other county, resulting in 17 games played each. This was the first time in the history of the Championship that this had happened, although in 1892 there had been two matches against each county with the format of home and away matches. From 1993 onwards all matches were scheduled to take place over four days; this was a change from the format in place from 1988 to 1992 when a mixture of three- and four-day matches were played.Engel Matthew Matthew Engel Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 1994 John & Wisden Co Ltd Guildford 376 0947766235 The Championship was sponsored by Britannic Assurance for the tenth time.https://www.theguardian.com/sport/1999/aug/20/cricket7 That's out: the sponsors who walked The Guardian 20 August 1999 16 September 2025 Table 16 points for a win 8 points to each team for a tie 8 points to team still batting in a match in which scores finish level Bonus points awarded in first 120 overs of first innings Batting: 200 runs - 1 point, 250 runs - 2 points 300 runs - 3 points, 350 runs - 4 points Bowling: 3-4 wickets - 1 point, 5-6 wickets - 2 points 7-8 wickets - 3 points, 9-10 wickets - 4 points No bonus points awarded in a match starting with less than 8 hours' play remaining.
