Hales not playing for Notts. Presume he's at the IPL. I thought he wasn't picked at the auction.

Tim taking a shredding for Yorks. But Benco steps in with a much needed wicket. Yorks needing another big game for Rashid I think.

Trott run out but not much going on for Yorks. Bit of a stretch to see them doing well this season in 50 overs without ZBGB, Plunkett and Willey anyway.

Bell goes cheaply. Maybe a little fissure of opportunity has opened here for the Yorks bowlers.

Only four overs left for Rashid. Maybe need to keep those in the bank for while.

Comfortable win for Warks by the looks of it.

Perhaps Bell will follow Trott and retire this season- just a couple of fifties and nothing else to write home about in 2018 - not a lot in 2017 either.

A win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done N'hants!

Comfortable for Warks. Hain just getting his ton in time.

Ton for Luke Wright. Sussex should win this one.

And if the 50 over performances are dire it'll almost certainly be even worse when the T20 gets underway. I'd imagine the lack of firepower in the bowling and batting will be even more exposed in that competition!

Yorkshire host Worcester tomorrow. Matthew Fisher and Jack Brooks are back.

It looks like Azeem Rafiq and Josh Shaw make way.

Tim Bresnan
Harry Brook
Jack Brooks
Ben Coad
Matthew Fisher
Andrew Hodd (Wicketkeeper)
Jack Leaning
Adam Lyth
Steve Patterson (Captain)
Cheteshwar Pujara
Adil Rashid
Tom Kohler-Cadmore
James Wainman

Everyone but Durham in this division have two points.

No changes for Yorks as it turns out with Brooks and Fisher omitted.

Great start for Worcs at 65-1 off 11. Coad with the wicket.

Looks a bit ominous that Worcs have Travis Head in the side.

Worcs look like getting about 320 v Yorks and as clearly the better white ball side out of the two, that's a lot of runs to chase.

A couple of new batters in now though. An opportunity here for the Yorks bowlers.

350.... ouch. I thought it was only Durham who gave that many away

Even employing some tactical pessimism, I didn't think Yorks would give away 350.

Still, I'm not expecting a lot from this competition, especially without ZBGB, even if Plunkett and Willey are back soon..
