Yorkshire

For a special International Women’s Day feature, we spoke to Rich Pyrah about his new role with Yorkshire women and his hopes and aims for the forthcoming summer and longer-term too.

It is fair to say that new head coach Anthony McGrath raised a knowing smile when the schedule for Yorkshire’s pre-season tour to Abu Dhabi was finalised. Their first opponents? Essex.

There is a well-known phrase which suggests, ‘Never go back’. For dynamic top order batter Ami Campbell, however, she absolutely does not subscribe to that view having returned to Headingley this winter to join Yorkshire Women. 

Australian seamer Jordan Buckingham has signed on for a four-match stint in this summer’s Rothesay County Championship, representing Yorkshire through May.

Yorkshire will, this summer, launch a talent identification drive across the five ECB Premier Leagues within the county, aiming to unearth previously untapped talent playing within the recreational game. 

The Yorkshire County Cricket Club will continue its innovative approach to talent identification in 2025 by launching a brand-new Under-23 programme.

George Hill has packed a lot into the last seven months, making it a period in his career he will not forget in a hurry. Now he is aiming for the next seven months to be equally magnificent.

This September, it will be 10 years since Yorkshire won the second of back-to-back County Championship titles with a side including current players Jonny Bairstow, Adam Lyth, Adil Rashid and Joe Root.

The Yorkshire County Cricket Club is delighted to announce that Adam Lyth has signed a new one-year contract extension.

Ben Coad is confident he and Yorkshire are in for an exciting four years after the talismanic seamer recently put pen to paper on a new contract at Headingley.

Erin Thomas has reflected on a “really valuable” experience at last month’s Under 19s T20 World Cup in Malaysia, believing she has returned to Yorkshire with her game in good order ahead of the forthcoming summer.
