Yorkshire give new deals to nine players
Yorkshire county cricket club has handed new contracts to nine different players including club captain http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Gale-c1039.
Yorkshire was one of the strongest clubs in the country last season and the club only missed out on the division one county championship title on the final day. The club has moved quickly to make sure
important players are retained.
"After a very promising season in 2010 we are all aware of the importance of keeping this exciting, young and
talented group of players together," said Yorkshire director of cricket Martyn Moxon.
The news is very positive for the club because it allows the nucleus of the side to stay together and keep developing. Yorkshire is now able to correct the wrongs of last
season and push for the title in 2011.
Positive news
This is positive news because it keeps a successful squad together for a long time. Gale, Richard Pyrah, Steve Patterson, Time Bresnan and Adam Lyth will all be at the
county until at least 2013.
Joe Sayers and Anthony McGrath have signed deals, which will end a year earlier at the close of the 2012 season. Moin http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ashraf-c46397 and Gurman Randhawa have signed the first professional
contracts of their careers, which makes up the nine.
Yorkshire doesn't have to worry about losing important players. The coaches can focus on the things that cost the club the title last season over the winter. The players
will also want to make up for the disappointment of missing out on title success. This will put the county in a very strong position by the start of next spring.
"To have so many players committing their future to the club this early
in the winter is excellent news and gives us a tremendous platform on which to build ahead of next season," added Moxon.
Betting advice
Yorkshire is a good best to win the county championship title next season even at this early stage. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yorkshire-c867 has strong and historic cricket roots and this news will only
act as inspiration to the club. Lyth and Gale are great bets for players to score centuries in the four-day game.
