Yorkshire will have to bowl very well to get anything out of this game, 170 all out is rather pathetic.

Phil Britt on commentary for Warwickshire always squeezes out words like a man sitting on a lavatory straining with terrible constipation.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Hard, like his father.

Arf!

Yorkshire will have to bowl very well to get anything out of this game, 170 all out is rather pathetic.

Yorkshire got the tactics wrong from ball one, the top order batsmen were dismal bar Ballance.

Winning the toss and opting to bat on a cloudy and humid day
Preparing a grubby wicket with only one spinner to Worcestershire's three
Lack of aggression in the top 3, need someone to hit out and take advantage of the opening powerplay.
Stocking the big hitting batsmen between 7 and 10, when timing the ball got harder as the innings progressed.

I see there's no coverage of this competition on SKY today, they've moved over to the vital T20 game between Kent and Hants.

[Alviro Patterson]

Michael Lumb and Riki Wessels continuing where they left off on Monday.

I see Wessels doesn't have the best of List A averages, but his Twenty20 record is rather good and is currently on form in this years Blast with scores of 52,38 and 58. Future England candidate?

Notts post a second consecutive 400 total.


Warwickshire are having a good go at chasing it too.

[hopeforthebest]

Lumb and Wessels once again made hay whilst the sun was shining and once again with the exception of a rare contribution grom Ambrose it was all about the Warwickshire top 4. If they hope to qualify from this group they must surely bring in Chopra for Evans.

[Aidan11]

Good effort by Boom Boom.

[Aidan11]

Wrong thread.

Brilliant schedule from the ECB mixing T20 with RL50.

[The Professor]

It's bamboozled me that Middlesex have only now realised that putting Stirling as an opener is a pretty good idea.

[dan08]

53 ball hundred for Billings.

[pompeymeowth]

Billy Beer will have enjoyed that Morgan wicket. CJ got 5 to where he was again.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Going to Scarborough today to see the game v N'hant, would have been the ideal way to get through my 52nd birthday with the minimum of fuss. But the forecast is horrendous.
