Good to hear, thanks, Brian. But it seems crazy (or very negative) for Yorkshire to prepare such a non-result pitch when we need a victory, that obviously now will not happen.

Frankly, it seems crazy to prepare a wicket this flat under *any* circumstances!

So right, though there would be some logic to it if this were the last match and Yorkshire just needed to avoid defeat to finish top.

It would still be a rotten thing to do, though. (I speak in my personal capacity, not the ACS's.) This sort of thing is poison to the game.

I hope Bairstow has been behaving himself better today. And it seems stupid for Yorkshire to produce such a batting paradise when a victory is needed and our bowling is rather weak - why?

Yes he was and batted excellently

I agree, rotten, but at least more comprehensible than the road in the present match.
