Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread

 brilliant to see two Isle of Wight cricketers taking centre stage. I've known Hosey and Briggsy since they were  8 years old and playing for Ventnor CC Colts. It's been amazing watching their careers develop.

Ed Barnard as expected has moved to Warwick - grrr!! Very good signing for you guys but a huge loss to us.  Is getting better and better with the bat, can see him eventually being a very competent 5/6, decent medium pace and excellent fielder

Good signing I think for us.

Sibley going back to Surrey - perhaps this was on the cards for a while and explains us signing Davies.

Hose and Stone are also out of contract at the end of this season and are reported to be considering their futures.

Another enormerous score from the Bears, setting Yorkshire a target of 239. It's on Yorkshire's YouTube channel if you fancy watching the reply.

Blimey Worcs have won a game….chairman will be delivering a 10 year contract extension to Gidman for that.

Thanks Pears.

Big start for Yorkshire, we could do with another wicket soon.

Maybe one more if I try again?

2 very important wickets there to kill all the momentum for them. This is very tough for them now.

Just back from Headingley, loved it!! Dan Mousley is some prospect.

So a TV game at OT. They can review boundaries and over waist high deliveries but not the most obvious lbw when Lintoft is bowling. Still as long as the favoured few have the best chance of making Finals day who cares heh ?

Very true, poor umpiring in general all game. We are at least still home in the QF on Thursday and with tickets only a tenner in advance should get a decent crowd.

Was a cracking game, always felt they were slightly ahead, but we took it tk the last over.
