Yorkshire Sack Byas

Today David Byas and Yorkshire CCC parted company. Byas a former player had just 1 season as coach before agreeing to leave the club after what Byas described as "A lack of enjoyment and team togetherness."
Byas leaves the club with just under 2 weeks untill the new season kicks off. Yorkshire didn't have ling to find a coach but they found one in just 3 days.
The new coach will be Jack Dennison. Dennison has little experiance but what he lacks in experiance he gains in enthusiasm. He starts work tommorow when he will meet the squad for the first time.

Exclusive Dennison Interview

Interviewer: "Jack tommorow is your first game in charge of Yorkshire CCC, are you looking forward to it?"

Jack Dennison: "Yes, of course. It will be the most nervous day of my life but I live of nerves."

I: "Your facing a good looking Essex side what do you make of them?"

JD: "Well, Danish Kaneria is the greatest googly bowling leggie in the world, the flower brothers are both strong with the bat and they have good young talent in Jefferson, Cook and Foster to go with a good leader in Ronnie Irani."

I: "What do you make of your own squad?"

JD: "We have a strong batting line up and a few decent looking young bowlers who should brake in to the team soon."

I: "Well good luck for tommorow."

JD: "Thank you."

Essex v Yorkshire Preview

Tommorow Jack Dennison takes charge of his first game in charge of Yorkshire CCC against Essex at Chelmsford. The sides are evenly matched in the batting department but Essex do have a slightly better bowling side. The weather looks good for the whole match with cloud on day 2. The pitch is as flat as a pancake and both sides should be aiming for full batting points. There are no injuries to deal with for Dennison.

Day 1 Review Essex v Yorkshire



Yorkshire go into day 2 with a lot of work to do. They where bowled out for 178 and are bowling at Essex who are 52 with out loss. The pitch looked great for batting but poor shot selection and concentration lead to low scores and soft dissmissals.



The toss was won by Yorkshire who choose to bat on a flat pitch. Yorkshire went in ti the game with only two specialist bowlers and three all rounders. On the other hand Essex had four. Apart from that the team where evenly matched.

Matthew Wood fell first for 0 in the first over LBW former team mate Darren Gough. With the score 0 for 1 the start looked ominous. Phil Jaques and Michael Vaughan set about making a partenership. They seemed to be set but Vaughan fell LBW to Andre Adams for 13 from 57. The new batsmen Lumb came in looking to help Jaques, he lasted just 11 deliveries before, he fell for 6 LBW to Irani. Yorkshire were firmly on the back foot 34-4 with Jaques watching wickets tumble. Soon Jaques fell caught Clarke bowled Tudor on 21. McGrath and Sayers cautiously guided Yorkshire to 76 for 4 by lunch. A big innings was needed.

After lunch Sayers and McGrath put on a fifty partenership soon after the milestone Sayers was dropped but failed to capitalise and fell caught and bowled by a firey Darren Gough for a slow 19. The second overseas player Ian Harvey came in.

[Jacko99]

[aussie1st]

Yes your sig is too big resize to 300*100

Back on topic very poor start. Their bowling let them down, chasing over 200 is very hard.

 

[Jacko99]

Off topic: how can i resize my picture
