Consecutive Wins in the English County Championship

 

Following Yorkshire’s third win in succession, in 2016, Yorkshire was in a position to equal the so-far-unique achievement of four wins in a row:

   Lancashire:

1966, 1967, 1968 and 1969.

Runs of “only” three wins in a row, to date:

   Middlesex:

1908, 1909 and 1910 (the first three competitions);

   Middlesex:

1963, 1964 and 1965;

   Cambridgeshire:

1970, 1971 and 1972 (Keene, Hartston & co.);

   Middlesex:

1985, 1986 and 1987;

   Kent:

1996, 1997 and 1998;

   Yorkshire:

2014, 2015 and 2016.

 

Five wins in a row would be a “first”, but takes a bit of doing.
