You reckon?

Might lose Bresnan and maybe Shahzad for the one-day stuff, but I can see Bresnan being the sacrificial lamb to make way for Anderson's return and England going back to six specialist batsmen in the Test arena.

Rashid seems to have fallen off the England radar entirely (after a couple of winters spent as Isotonic-wallah) and none of the batters are in danger of an international call at this stage in their careers.

I didn't mean in terms of numbers, given the lack of depth in our seam attack if we just lose Bresnan and Shahzad for a few games then we could struggle.

Having said that I haven't checked the international calendar for this year so I don't know when any call-ups would hit and how it would affect us.

The back to back Tests against Bangladesh clash with Hampshire away and Lancs at home in the Championship.

The first two Tests against Pakistan clash with Notts at home.

The third and fourth Tests clash with Durham away and Hampshire at home.

So that's potentially five Championship fixtures where Yorkshire could be weakened by Test calls, although Hampshire, Lancashire and Notts would all most likely be missing key players too.

Another good result for Yorkshire, beaten Somerset by 6 wickets having been set 198.

Was a bit apprehensive at 17/2 but Lyth and Gale batted well and in the end we won comfortably, way too early in the year to be spending a day at the cricket though, I was freezing this afternoon!

2 wins before the end of April is fantastic for Yorkshire as most games this this time of year are weather affected, luckily not for us.

One more win should be enough for us to avoid relegation! Yay!
