Phew, made that look harder than it needed to be

Chance for Benjamin here...

….he didn’t hear you
A couple of lovely drives off width balls then missed a straight one.

After we put them in I was starting to worry when they were 70/0 after 10 but 103/10 off the next 25 is a superb come back.

174 to win.

Read an interesting stat today that no Warwickshire player (domestic or overseas) has ever scored a Test Match 100 at Edgbason.

Apparently Brian Lara got the closest with 95.

The same 13 man squad travel to Hove.
Rob Yates in line to return to the top of the order after an X-ray on his hand confirmed he’d not suffered a fracture.

To leave at the end of the season. No suggestion as to where he’s going from the club.

88 all out!

4 for Barnard so far, he’s certainly in a purple patch at the moment.

Ed Barnard carries his bat for 173 not out, a captains knock and the first win on the board.

We won the toss and bowl first.

Taz Ali misses out. Theo Wylie makes his debut.

18 year olds Theo Wylie and Taz Ali have signed 2 year rookie contracts.

Jayden Seales was with Sussex for the first half of the season and I believe he is keen to return there next year. He was due to join them in 2023 but was injured.

A captains innings from Barnard 143(113) including 7 x 6’s.

I like the look of that. In the best way, I hope we see less of Lintott in that he gets one of the remaining 100 slots. Also, would like to see Wylie and Taz do the spin bowling. Edward Batchelor I've never heard of. Can anyone fill me in?

Edward Batchelor, 18 year old right arm medium bowler. Played a couple of 2nd XI games this season.
