Seriously, I don't know what the Yorkshire team were on over the winter, but I want some!!

Change of captain, change of attitude around the place by the sound of it.

The young batters at the top of the order who the club have invested time and patience in such as Sayers, Lyth, Gale and Bairstow have all hit good form at the start of the season too, backing up the bowling attack.

Yes, it's only Essex and they are racing certainties to finish bottom, but to win by an innings with your two best quicks out of the side is quite an achievement IMO.

bairstow is an excellent player, could go a long way in the game

This is all getting a bit tedious. Will someone out there give us a game?

When the T20 starts I'd be tempted to leave him out, get Brophy in and give him time to work with someone like Jack Russell on his keeping.

Still concedes too many byes IMO, although thankfully his catches are sticking.

Good to see another Academy product coming in yesterday in Ben Sanderson and doing well.

Nice to see Brophy come in and gets straight amongst the runs!

One of the good things about this season so far has been the way players have come into the side and made positive contributions, it's not just a first XI that are doing the business.

Still, I'll keep my healthy scepticism that I save for all the teams I follow and insist that it's bound to go tits-up sooner or later!

17 wickets at Edgbaston so far today. Last 2 Lancs wickets from the first innings, Warwickshire bowled out for 113, and Lancs now 21-5. Wonder why Lancs didn't enforce the follow on?

Re: County Cricket 2010 : Tue May 18, 2010 4:00 pm  

Lancs now 43-6 at tea
