Start delayed at Edgbaston. Unlikely to be much play today or tomorrow.

With little prospect of a result, will Bresnan be allowed to rest up for this one to preserve the 100% record?

With the Hit & Giggle starting today who are people tipping to win it?
I will go for Surrey or Essex with someone unusual like Derbyshire being a dark horse.

Couple of quick T20 questions....
1) which team has made most Finals Day appearances?
2) which team has made most Finals Day appearances without winning it?
3) which teams have never made it to Finals Day yet?...clue...there are only 3 who haven't got there yet.






Lancashire CCC = 2011 LV County Champions

Not sure but here are my guesses

1) Leicestershire

2) Lancashire

3) Derbyshire, Worcestershire and Yorkshire


Can not agree on Derbyshire as they are good at 4 day cricket but very limited at the one day game (though in Tom Knight have a very good one day spinner). Saw them against Warwickshire the other day and the Bears are my idea of potential winners as they look a very strong outfit and in Darren Maddy have someone who knows the 20-20 game down to a tee. Should come 2nd at worst to Somerset in their Group though can see them topping the section.

Correct, correct and orrect! Well done.

Will Warwickshire be OK with no Bell or Trott in their batting line-up? And do they have anyone explosive lower down the order to win them a game? That is the one area that Lancs haven't improved in and another reason we won't win it.

I think its a case now of England players not really playing county cricket so not sure Warwickshire will miss players who never really turn out for them anyway (at least after the first few weeks of a season), as for an explosive hitter the jury is out but only because so far they have not really needed to wag the tail in one day cricket as they are winning without losing many wickets but winning breads confidence and they are doing the business on all fronts at present but then I've probably given them the kiss of death tipping them up :D
