Good win by the Bears! Why didn't Sam Hain play today? He's a vital cog in this T20 team. Hopefully it's nothing serious......
A bit of a niggle...nowt serious.

Disappointing from the Bears but still three wins out of four isn't bad going. Sounds like Leicester bought a lot of scummy fans with them.

"Lot of excitement around London because of the Test but more importantly, the jubilee. During the national anthem...it was a real hairs-standing-up-on-the-back-of-your-neck moment."

Shut up Dominic Cork, you twat.

The 20 or so of their fans were a total embarrassment to humanity. Initially we sat about 20 yards from them but moved after about 5 overs. Obviously drunk at the start of the game they proceeded to sing half baked out of time football songs and when they were ignored resorted to insulting local fans and city of Birmingham. Watching from other side of the ground I noticed that there were lot of issues around 4.30 with police and stewards involved. There may have been some arrests. Truly detestable lot.

As for cricket very disappointing response from Bears even though Carlos nearly could have swung it in the end.

I wish they'd change the name back to Warwickshire, to be honest. I haven't followed the Blast since they changed it.

I agree it's bollocks, but I still think of them as Warwickshire, regardless. Unlike that Phoenix nonsense.

Yeah, I've tried but it just doesn't feel the same. I'm a Warwickshire fan, not a Birmingham fan. It would be like if we changed to Birmingham Villa. Just wrong.

Fair enough, I was like that for a while, but if I don't support either of the "Birmingham" cricket teams, I'll hardly get chance to attend any matches!

True. I live in Worcester, so I go to the CC games where I can, and when we're in the same division.

A poor result today. We need Sam Hain back, plus Woakes, Stone and Norwell to be available for once!

Seems like the whole of Worcester has shut since we were last here. 🙁
