Well if you cast your mind bak to last year Lancashire didnt have much fun with the tykes. The great 20/20 game with Harvey's ton, and the C&G semi with Vaughan's ton.
So i expect repeat perfomances. C'mon boys

yeah and in the C&G they had Vaughan and Hoggard but we didn't have Freddy, if we'd have Freddie we'd probably have won.

We did win in the preseason friendly :p

you may have won the twenty20 but i dont seem to remember yorkshire making the later stages of the twenty20.

its good to get back in the same league as ye anyway, we've been waiting for you to get promoted but you couldn't seem to manage it so we decided to get relegated instead, should make for a couple of interesting Roses matches this year.

Doesn't take a genius to work-out the better side from where I'm standing... especially when we've got Hutchison and Sidebottom in reserve.
As for these days, well... we're neither of us what we used to be, of course, but I'd say the weakening has been equal on both sides.

A shame.
Mind, Chaminda didn't exactly distinguish himself on his visit to The Rose Bowl.
