2025 County Championship: Club Club Guide to the season
2024 season – Second in Division two (promoted)
Jonathan Doidge – BBC Radio Leeds
It is likely that it is a very interesting 2025 for Yorkshire.
With financial concerns now, apparently, when the team has returned to the first flight of the championship, as well as a new coaching staff and new captains Red Ball and T20, there should be rightly an air of optimism.
Jonny Bairstow follows in the footsteps of his deceased father David to lead the challenge of the championship. He would like to have a title as a captain in his CV but apart from the captain, his presence alone with the bat will be enormous.
In the same way, Dawid Malan will return to play multiple red ball crickets, an important advantage. Add to that powerful opening pair of Adam Lyth and Finlay Bean, as well as James Wharton, whose career has started to bloom last year in particular, and more established beats such as George Hill and the end of the team should be able to create games.
As we know, it is not good without the ability to take 20 wickets and in that department there is a lot of encouragement.
The exceptional Ben Coad will guide the line again. Even the contribution abroad comes, in particular, also Ben Sears Plus of New Zealand Sutherland (two games) and Jordan Buckingham (four) who stops, while George Hill, Jordan Thompson is also there, recruited out of season Jack White, plus Matt Audis and Matt Milnes, who are on the road to injury.
Dom Bess seems likely that it is the first choice of this coach among the Filagers, even if Dan Moriarty and Jafer Chohan will mean in this.
With Bairstow wearing the WA maintenance gloves you should definitely try Tattersall after reporting the team last season, but this is a professional sport.
With a day Cup Centurion Luxton waiting for another opportunity, there will be a pressure up with the club and I would have supported well cliff to exert a serious pressure on the team’s older bowling players on the team. He could really bring his game to the next level while the season takes place.
In summary, there is optimism that the leader Anthony McGrath coach can bring the team to places that has not been for some time.
