The Cricket Thread
Re: The Cricket Thread
Bugger! Forgot about next week's games.
We (Somerset) have got Surrey at the Oval and Middlesex have got Lancashire at Lords. As NW says, it'll be close but Yorkshire should be safe. But you never know. It's a funny old game cricket (football, rugby, tiddly-winks et al).
Edit:
And then there's the matches after that.
Hint: Never use BBC Sport as a guide to future fixtures.

I've mixed feelings if I'm honest YCCC are in transition at the moment & need to rebuild our seamers are all getting on Sidebottom retires in a couple of weeks, Steve Patterson is 33, Jack Brooks is also 33 & Liam Plunkett is 32 so are going to need to replaced sooner rather than later. Luckily we have Ben Coad & Matthew Fisher who are more than capable but need more time in the first eleven.ChilwellWhite wrote:Are Yorkshire going to get relegated this season ?

Not for us (Warwickshire) its not!NottinghamWhite wrote:It's going to be close.
Think relegation might be a good thing. Club needs a clear out and Giles has already started that off.
With 2 up and 2 down all of the bigger clubs are going to face relegation more often. Will keep things fresh I feel.

Re: The Cricket Thread
Really feel for Durham especially after the way they were treated last season what with the ECB effectively relegating them taking loads of points off them. Now this happens the stand will have to be demolished & that'll be the end of test cricket up there.
