Pringle out then. Bad news for him not to make our squad!

I think he was the one someone at the last forum suggested should be involved in these games and Lewis suggested would be after a sarcastic " who is he ?" comment.

Yeah, I'm amazed they've already sold 8000 tickets. Yorkshire always the biggest draw but still very impressive. No doubt we will put in a brilliant performance :scared

Best chance is probably if we get to bat first and get 150 ish then hope Tahir works his magic! Most teams seem to want to bowl if they win the toss so if that happens we better limit them to about 140.

Tahir was interviewed by Look North at the ground in last night's edition and was emphasizing that he was here not only to play but was keen to pass on his knowledge to younger players. He had a protege alongside him who was neither spoken to nor introduced. I didn't recognize him but by process of elimination presumed it was Whitehead. He may well be replacing the"injured"Pringle tonight with Davies making way for Richardson.
Oh!, hang on, that's logical thinking....

If it's Richo there'll be a run out!
Just coming up through CLS and lots of people around.

Richardson isn't playing and neither is Whitehead but Trevaskis is.
Kohler-Cadmore out cheaply thank God!
Weighell with the wicket but now having a disastrous 2nd over.
Short boundary towards the pavilion so could be high scoring- at least in the 1st innings.

They're getting bogged down against Colly, Smith and Tahir. 70-3 in the 11th over. Naturally as I type there's a boundary.

Hopeless 19th over from Weighell.

158 needed to win. Expensive bowling again at the end - think that is probably a bit above par despite a shortish boundary.
Some dodgy umpiring- think Tattersal was out stumped ( if not him it was Bresnan) but given not out. Tahir was off on his celebration run.
