Played for Yorkshire against us last season and looked decent. Can't say as I know too much about him though.
Thought it was probably the right decision at the toss, muggy, cloudy, gloomy. England bowled poorly though. The overheads offered assistance throughout the day.
Good article, thanks for sharing.
But there was no fans at Cardiff that week due to covid restrictions. Writer has had a mare.
Out of the locally developed lads,
Woakes, Johal, Moeen, H Brookes, E Brookes, Hamza Sheikh and Amir Khan are state educated.
Yates, Garrett and Hain private. Bethell too I think.
Not sure on Mousley.
Apologies if I've got any wrong.
Think Wood has picked up an elbow injury.
Goodness me how on earth do you play that? Shame, Yates was looking good.
He's putting on a clinic here.
He should get dragged for that.
There's some very, very weird quotes in that piece from a man who I've always thought doesn't really 'get' county cricket.
I keep forgetting it's the Kookaburra ball to be fair
Tough day, clearly. Incredible we've walked off with 7 wickets, Essex gave us a couple of freebies.
Don't think we bowled well enough for long enough to exert any sort of pressure. Lintott is very much learning on the job in this format. Can't fault the effort though, they all kept running in.
Can't help but think Harmer will have a field day on this track, it's flat but there is also a bit of bounce and decent enough carry, it's very dry though.
Wish we'd have won the toss.
Seems as though he's slipping down the pecking order at Yorks as they've loaned Dan Moriarty from Surrey and he's gone straight into their XI today.
Could Bess become a permanent deal?

Very impressed by how the team has responded to Sam Hain being injured. I thought we'd really struggle without him. Also, although he's not the most popular person on this forum, Davies does have a good record as captain - has he lost one yet? It will be interesting to see if we sign another bowler now Hassan is going - he'll leave a big gap but previous short term "emergency" signings haven't done well.
Yeah I'm not sure how I'd feel about a 'ringer' coming in.
Do we know exactly when Hasans last game is?
Briggs looked like he was feeling his hamstring when he come off.
Quarter finals coincide with the 3rd Test at Headingley. I think.
Mousley terrific again, in all facets.
Yates, I'll say it again, he's quietly having a very good tournament.
How short was that boundary towards the Raglan side?!
I don't think he's been as bad as what some people on here have been making out. Last night was outrageous though.
Yates is under the radar having a very decent comp.
Think the thing that has impressed me about Chris Wright since leaving is the way he's stayed generally injury free. If you cast your mind back he had some terrible back injuries with us from about 2014 onwards.
