FOUR games played, no wins gained.
Not the start that Yorkshire were looking for when they embarked on their quest to win the Second Division title. The first match, at home to Leicestershire, was a rain-affected draw. Not much that Yorkshire could have done about that. The second, at Gloucestershire, was also drawn - not helped by a slow pitch, the Kookaburra ball and, in this view, an overly-cautious declaration when Gloucestershire were set 498 for victory .
One option could be to try to make them more spin friendly, enabling the club to play two specialist spinners in Dom Bess and Dan Moriarty, both of whom are in the squad for this match. “We could look at trying to make the wicket spin, but it’s very difficult to make the wicket spin at Headingley because Headingley is not traditionally a place for spin bowling, but we’ll discuss all the options that are open to us,” said Gibson.
