    In tomorrow’s game, Yorkshire’s squad includes Bairstow, Malan, Root and Brook together with a very important Coad.
    Not a bad batting lineup eh ?

    I'm going tomorrow, looking forward to it - just hope we're batting so I can see our England stars.

    Have a good day and watch that sun !
    I reckon that all the fantastic four have at some stage been ranked at the top of the world rankings in one format.
    Not many counties will be able to claim that

    For CC games the rules are 4 x 440ml cans of beer or 1 bottle of wine per person. I've seen people taking in 4 x 'pint' cans, don't think the stewards are that bothered. You will get a cursory bag check.

    I'm there tomoz and sat.

    Buckingham makes his debut. He played a couple of Big Bash games for Adelaide Strikers. Bean is one to make way, but he's been getting plenty of runs this week for the seconds in a Roses match.

    Warrickshire have Beau Webster playing for them. A very handy Australian all rounder who for most nations would be a regular, but being Australian it's hard. He plays for Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash.

    Disastrous start with Bess and Wharton gone already. Glad to see that we’re batting though for all those who have turned up hoping to see Root and Brook batting. They might both be in before lunch the way it’s going
