BERKSHIRE will open their defence of the Unicorns Counties Championship with a home game against Cornwall at Wargrave Cricket Club on June 4 to 6.
Wargrave, who hosted a one-day game last season, offered their ground after Henley had made it known they wanted to take a break from staging a three-day match.
Their two other home fixtures are against Wiltshire at Falkland and Herefordshire at Finchampstead, while their away games will be versus Wales, Oxfordshire and Devon.
In the Unicorns Trophy, Berkshire are to face Devon at Henley and Cornwall at Wokingham, with their away group games taking them to Oxfordshire and Dorset.
Berkshire’s traditional season opener against Wiltshire for the Marlborough Cup is to be played at North Maidenhead on April 16.
