No Result: 4 points.
Abandoned: 10 points.

Up to four batting and four bowling points were available to the losing side only, or both sides in an incomplete match.

Teams

[edit]

The 2007 Championship was divided into two tiers: the County Championship and the County Challenge Cup. The County Championship consisted of three divisions of four teams, whilst the Challenge Cup consisted of five groups of four teams, with Division A as the top tier and Groups 1 to 4 as equal tiers below. The winner of Division A of the Challenge Cup were promoted to the County Championship.
