    Yorkshire.
    Ended on a high. Very good run chase by the look of it. Off the bottom.

    Well done Yorkshire. add back the points deduction and it's a 3rd place finish. Those with a long memory will think back to the wash out in Bristol. Abandoned without a ball bowled. I got drowned there on Tuesday.

    Shan Massood came good in the last few games .
    Encouraging cricket in September so let’s hope we can make a serious challenge next season ( and get good overseas players !!!! )

    Decent season. 3rd without the points off, Masood averaging in the 60s and another season of Lyth cracking a thousand runs. Should be promotion next season. It was very England test side of them to declare so far behind to force a result.

    Too much bad luck with the weather as well meaning likely wins became draws. Could have finished top!

    I really wish we could re-organise the League/County set up, to 5 days a game. It's just ridiculous how weather can almost totally determine and this ruin a teams season.
    But failing to see teams off from a winning position is also annoying, and completely out own fault!.

    I remember when they were 3 day matches and uncovered pitches but games were played in the main summer months.
    There was only one other competition .. I think Benson & Hedges sponsored it.
    Nowadays County games are played in early April and late September so priority is given to the Hundred etc.
    4 day games are fine if played in main summer months
