Fantastic innings by Trescothick, they'd have been sunk without him.
But I've never been as cold as that at a cricket match.
I hope we can pile on the runs tomorrow but the ball was still moving about a lot tonight.
There should at least be some sun.

What the hell we going to do when Bresnan & Shahzad go to the World t20. both opening bowlers taken away and no or little experience in reserve.

Don't worry the [sizeTino[/size Best is still to come.

Cheers.

Typo.

Another great day's play helped by superb sunny weather - what a difference a day makes.
Frostbite yesterday, sunburn today!
Pity Gale got himself out just after he'd scored his 1st ton as skipper.
Let's hope that Rashid & Shahzad can get another batting bonus point & rack up a good lead for us.

LOL after the Best comments by SR - good old Freddie

One of the funniest moments in cricket ever,he's still pi$$ing himself laughing when tino's on his way back to the dressing room.

Looking like a tense finish - currently 180-4 needing 198 to win. I thought that when Somerset managed to bat through the morning and almost rack up a 200 lead we'd blown it and may have to settle for a draw, but Lyth and Gale have both batted really well - thing is though, can't be too much time/overs left! 2 wins out of 2 would be a terrific start though!

By the time I'd finished posting that it was all over! Lyth 90, Gale 64 not out - cracking win! They seem to have really motored towards the end, so it must've been getting pretty close to the end of play. Another 5 wicket haul for Hannon-Dalby too - with 10 out of the 11 players being Yorkshire born for the 2nd match running things are looking very good!!

well done yorkshire top of county championship

I went everyday apart from saturday when I went to Hull.
Excellent all round performance from the team, the spinners looked below par but I think thatb was down to the pitch & the cold weather on Thursday & today.
Never seen Lyth bat better what a shame he didn't get the ton he deserved.
Gale again led from the front let's hope this isn't another false dawn.
Impressed too with Hannon-Dalby lets hope he can lead the attack in the absence for the next few weeks of Bresnan & Shahzad. That will be the acid test even with Best if he finally gets here.
I'm off to Kent next week too, roll on more of the same!

As a Cas fan & a LUFC fan, this is the only highlight of my wretched weekend. Promising start. Worrying how woeful Maggsy is though.

Thank goodness for the Yorks cricket team, I needed a boost after last night's result & boy have they delivered in spades.
4 wickets for Best on debut then an unbroken opening stand of 233 between Gale (125 not out) and Rudolph (101 not out) to give us victory by 10 wickets.
Plus they batted well on Saturday to easily save the game against Kent.
Let's hope they can keep it up this week against Durham at Headingley.

Good to see the team starting the season so well!
