Good news for cricket!

Come on Yorkshire

Seems Yorks prepared a turner for Somerset, who left out Leach.

Fixed

Though it does look a bit parched in front of the new Rugby Stand

Ten for Maharaj.

Leach is playing for England Lions.

A superb win by Yorkshire, overshadowed by events at Lord's

Yorkshire's County Championship season is still alive. Four matches left with games against Notts, Somerset, Kent and Warwickshire, win all those four and who knows.

Though Somerset and Essex play each other in the last round of County Championship matches. Ideally Yorkshire need to overturn a 30 odd point deficit in three matches to go top before the last match, probably too much to ask in reality.

We've replaced Somerset at the top after a huge win over Warks!

Well done!

How can Notts be so bad? Their team isn't so awful on paper. Something going badly wrong there.

It's very strange. Can't blame financial issues because they sign loads of players.

Buck stops at Director of Cricket, he's the one who has to sign off all the signings. But Newell appears beyond reproach.

It's a very good side on paper...maybe too many signings all at once?

[Alviro Patterson]

Notts just don't have a core of players who have come from the Academy. No coincidence Surrey's recent success have come from the Curran brothers, Burns, Foakes, Virdi, Pope et al.

Except Foakes came from the Essex academy, Curran brothers were schooled in South Africa, Morkel is South African, Borthwick and Stoneman developed in the Durham Academy, Clark established his career at Warwickshire and captain Batty came through the Yorkshire Academy. Virdi and Pope are certainly promising, Burns is established but the best one of all is Roy who didn't warrant a mention.
