We’ve won the toss and bat first. Same team.

An open statement from Woaksey

The last month has been the most challenging of my life when unfortunately my Dad passed away at the beginning of May. I’ve spent the last few weeks with the people most important to me, my family. We’re all obviously grieving and trying to get through what is undoubtedly the hardest moment of our lives. It’s at times like this that perspective is the greatest.

I will be back playing cricket for Warwickshire, who my Dad loved dearly, when the time is right for me and my family. I know playing cricket for Warwickshire and England made my Dad incredibly proud. I look forward to doing that again in the near future.

Thursday night in London isn’t looking too clever either. If England don’t play that game it means they’ve only had one warm-up game before the WC.

3:15 start.

Bears declare, Lancs require 232 to win, 44 overs remain.

If you get the chance make sure you watch the replay of Rob Yates catch off Lintott to get Nathan Lyon, it’s extraordinary.

Was it Rob Yates ? I thought it was Rhodes. But, whoever, it was amazing - one of the best I've seen for a while, how he adjusted himself after the ricochet !

My mistake, it was indeed Rhodes. Spectacular!

If you get the chance make sure you watch the replay of Will Rhodes catch to get Nathan Lyon, it’s extraordinary.
