.......it is flipping freezing, and it was yesterday too. I however am still trying to thaw out from Sunday at The Riverside, so I am preparing for Super chuffing cold Lady Lainey office with the thermals and socks and boots. It's hardly work wear but I refuse to be cold!
Yorkshire were trying to turn the heat up at Headingley yesterday and didn't manage to get the visitors out until after lunch by which time Little (not) Timmy Bresnan had a haul of 5 wickets and 'newby' James Middlebrook had taken 3.
Jack Brooks ( headband warrior) was lacking in the wicket department, is it due to his super short haircut?????? ( Samson effect)
Yorkshire went in to bat and lost the top three before close of play, they were 128-3 overnight.
Captain Gale and Jack Leaning will take to the crease this morning and I am expecting big hitting!
Over in Chester le Street it was another 'wag of the tail' that saved the hosts as John Hastings and Usman Arshad led a 9th wicket fightback and put on a 116. Ollie Robinson hero of Sunday for Sussex took 4 wickets, Matthew Hobden managed to nearly take Scott Borthwicks head off with a ball, luckily Borthwick was fine.
Play resumes today with Sussex 115-3.
A quick mention for Hampshire who were playing at home against Nottinghamshire. ( I am hoping to go and see Hants play my Tykes this weekend). The lovely Michael Carberry was not playing too well although he did manage 30. Come on Hampshire.
OK I am off now to freeze my wotnots off in the office so until tomorrow!
