I was expecting the "hundred players" to be available for the round of championship games starting on Tuesday 25th July since the Hundred starts on Tuesday 1st August but a guess they need some team bonding golf days before the tournament. If they do miss the 25th July round it's not a good time for us to be playing Northants with only two players from their squad playing in the hundred.

BBC reporting Warks have signed pace man Mir Hanza for their next two CC games including us on Wednesday.

That would be two ex Lancashire players not involved.

Keaton Jennings (c), Tom Bailey, George Balderson, George Bell, Jack Blatherwick, Josh Bohannon, Steven Croft, Tom Hartley, Daryl Mitchell, Jack Morley, Phil Salt, Luke Wells, Will Williams, Luke Wood "We have taken the decision that Rob won’t feature in our First Team plans for the rest of this season - as we focus on players who will be at the Club next season and beyond. "
As quoted elsewhere. Taken on face value this means that Vilas will not be around next year, but Croft and Blatherwick will.

So after the Warwick game we will have no overseas players left, although Vilas will still be available I assume? Are we likely to sign any or risk a plunge down the table?

Jumping forward momentarily to the next game who replaces Mitchell if not Vilas? Or could they sign an overseas bat for the One Day cup and have them slip in a single championship match?

I think we will be doing our best to stumble over the line 3rd or 4th bottom without paying for more overseas knowing our club. Big winter ahead in terms of what the message is to members and supporters. Vilas gone by the looks Croft maybe one last dance. I wouldn't be surprised to see Wood walk if Blatherwick is getting selected ahead of him. Serious investment and intent needed. I won't hold my breath.

I see Warwick have signed someone for the next two four day games.

Not sure what happened to my last post.....but I agree with anyport about next season. Its a little concerning other counties are announcing signings while Lancs only departures.

Lost toss and batting. Danny Lamb not in the original squad but in the team ahead of Wood and Blatherwick surprising and strange.
