It’s been an incredible summer for Northamptonshire's cricketers. No one gave them a hope at the start of the season, and with good reason after last year's disastrous campaign.

However, this summer they won the Twenty20 Cup in August, and now they’ve rounded it off by securing promotion to Division 1 of the County Championship.

Stuart looks back at the season’s highlights and talks to 91Èȱ¬ Radio Northampton commentator Chris Edgerton, to the Editor of Wisden, Lawrence Booth, who also happens to be a Northamptonshire fan, to former Northants star, Allan Lamb, who this year was appointed to the Northants board, and to 91Èȱ¬ Radio Northampton’s Andrew Radd.
