1929 County Championship

The 1929 County Championship was the 36th officially organised running of the County Championship. Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club won the championship title for the second time.

A new method of deciding the Championship was introduced where all counties played 28 matches with the team with the most points being declared winners instead of the previous system of calculating the percentage of points gained against possible points available.

Table

 * Eight points were awarded for a win
 * Four points were awarded for a tie
 * Five points for the side leading after the first innings of a drawn match
 * Three points for the side losing after the first innings of a drawn match
 * Four points for the sides if tied after the first innings of a drawn match
 * Four points for a no result on first innings (after more than six hours playing time)
 * If the weather reduces a match to less than six hours and there has not been a result on first innings then the match shall be void.
