Established in 1891, Buckinghamshire County Cricket Club is one of the nineteen county clubs which form the Minor counties of English and Welsh cricket. Not afforded first-class status, Buckinghamshire have however played List A cricket, making its first List A appearance in the 1965 Gillette Cup against Middlesex.[1] This continued until it was announced that the Minor counties would be excluded from the Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy from the 2006 season onward.[2]
