Yorkshire closing in on the title
#1
With only two games to go now, a magnificent win at Old Trafford in the Roses Match has put Yorkshire within touching distance of the title. One of those matches though, the next one, is a tricky trip to Trent Bridge to take on 2nd placed Notts.
And we will have to go there without skipper Andrew Gale, who has been given a 2 match ban following an altercation at the end of play yesterday with Ashwell Prince.  Sad

Was glued to the BBC website all day yesterday. At one point thought we wouldn't get the remaining wickets.
So a draw next week and we are virtually guaranteed it.

Incidentally, Yorkshire are far and away the most successful county ever in cricket. We've won 30 titles, the next (Surrey) are on 18, and after that it's 10 (Middlesex).

It's yours to lose and I can't see that happening unless they follow Gale's into suspension

Should do but you never know with the ECB. They might insist that he has a rest. Don't want Yorkshire walking away with the title.
