Gavin Hamilton has been looking ahead to what he describes as “a massive two weeks” in Yorkshire’s season.

As Jonny Bairstow spoke after the Vitality Blast defeat at Leicestershire on Sunday afternoon, he was clearly frustrated with the manner of it, Yorkshire slipping from 100-3 to 135 all out in their pursuit of a 148-target. But the White Rose skipper struck the balance between disappointment and encouragement.

Playing in a World Cup is the pinnacle of our cricket with Scotland, and this T20 one starting at the weekend is one I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. 

Sarah Glenn says “I loved being back out there” having made her Yorkshire debut against Durham at Headingley on Friday following a broken finger.

Yorkshire’s D40 Pursuit side extended their perfect start to the new season with a fifth successive win yesterday, this one by only one-wicket chasing 269 at home to Warwickshire at Higham Cricket Club.

Hassan Ali’s brilliant 4-18 was the standout performance for Yorkshire, but it wasn’t enough to prevent a low-scoring defeat as the county fell short of chasing a 148-target to lose by 12 runs off the penultimate ball.

Yorkshire are bidding for a fifth win in six games as the Blast group stage reaches its halfway point. Grace Road is the venue, Leicestershire Foxes are the opponents. Follow our blog for live updates throughout the afternoon.
