Will you pick the whole of the Yorkshire team or none of it?

He'll have the advantage, though, of not having Pietersen in the camp. Giles does seem to be the front runner at the moment.

That didn't seem to be Giles' public view a few weeks ago. He thought Pietersen was an advantage - or so he indicated!
There were, of course, umpteen other players in the dressing room - cant sort out one man - pathetic - if indeed he did need sorting out. I still find the term reintegration absolutely laughable - they are grown men and paid well - just get on with the job!
Good luck to whoever get the job - hopefully they will give the players proper responsibility both on and off the pitch, whether it's tactics, behaviour, or performance.
