The sun is shining on the first day of the new season. Pity the Bears aren't playing, Edgbaston is a great place to sink a few beers in the sunshine!

You're trying for every cricket ground as well as all the football grounds?? Good grief Dave.
Five minutes to go. Zomerzet have won the toss and put us in. According to Wiki we should have Khan this year, but he's not in the team. Is he joining later or have we got no overseas star this year? If only our England players were 'mental' like Trescothick and refused to play for their country we would have a much stronger team!Anyway... let's get this season started... COME ON YOOOUUUUUU BEEEEAAARRRSSS!!!
Good day for the Bears, 393 - 6 a few minutes before the close with Varun Chopra 170 not out.Need a consistent summer from the top order. We secured the highest number of bowling bonus points last season, largely thanks to Imran Tahir and Neil Carter. With Tahir back at Hampshire and Carter likely to miss half the season through injury, we could struggle to bowl sides out. The batsman can make up for the inevitable loss of bowling points.
Got to be happy with that. good batting strip or not we would have been all out for 170 last season.
