Adam Lyth on making his debut for England becomes number 666 . Good luck to him, let's hope he scores a beast of runs in future .

Well that was the kiss of death! A one season wonder at the mo ... but hey he comes from Yooooorkshire so he must be good.

[sufcessex]

its looking like he fits in nicely with the rest of them.

Maybe that's the modus operandi with Grayson?

If these Yorkshiremen didn't get up half an hour before they went to bed in order to get a shift in before play starts, they might do better - of in the case of one Tyke expatriate county coach if he just stayed in bed for the rest of the season...

Lyth's England number will prove a good quiz question in months and years to come, give him a chance he's got a lot of experience in LVCC 1, Hope he proves worthwhile.

Looked a better player than Root and Ballance when playing at ECG a couple of seasons ago , and scored two half centuries in the match .
A better option than  Robson to open the innings with Capt Cook .

[Andy]

Should be given more time - should've been given more opportunity in the Windies to cement his place.  Maybe a new outside manager may avoid these poor selection decisions.

First Yorkshiremen to score a hundred opening the innings for England at Headingly since Sir Geoffery in 1977 got his hundred hundredth .
Congrats to him, hopefully more to follow .

Didn't Bill Athey score one in the 1980s?

I'd echo congrats  to him ,think he'll do well in the long term, he's improved year on year especially in concentration & doesn't just get flash 20/30s - others please note!!
