O/T County cricket season started yesterday

[mikemiller]

Notts v Yorks - Notts just been bowled out for 408. Olivier, making his Yorkshire debut, took 5 for 96. Not ideal conditions for playing or watching cricket!

What part of Yorkshire is Olivier from?

[mikemiller]

Olivier is a S. African international player. Yorkshire still have more home-grown players than most of the other counties.
Yorks finished on 206-5. Lyth 81, Root 56 n.o., but Leaning continues to struggle - out for a duck.

Root?

I’d forgotten he played for Yorkshire

Live stream with BBC Radio Nottingham commentary on Trent Bridge Live site. Play for Day 3 has started on time, though it looks very overcast

Here we go again... middle order collapse, except for Root (73). Yorks all out for 291, giving Notts a big lead. At least the follow-on was avoided, but Yorks will have to dig in well to get a draw now

Additional information - Of the current 26 contracted Yorkshire players 19 were born in the county, 2 others came through the Yorkshire schools system (Souce : White Rose Cricket Forum)

Unbeaten stand of over 200 from Root and Ballance (Root has a ton) seems to have put the game safe as a draw

Which is great, but how many times will they be batting together this season?

@ mikemiller,
How do you reckon Yorkshire will do this season.
I May go up to Headingley for a match this season.
