    NZ vs WI

    Another big win. We batted first and thanks to excellent innings from Jesse Ryder and Ross Taylor we managed 417. When we bowled Daniel Vettori and Neil Wagner knocked them over in both innings and we comfortably knocked off the target by 9 wickets. We haven't lost a game on tour which is no mean feat.

    Batting Award: Jesse Ryder, played extremely well

    Bowling Award: Daniel Vettori, 8 wickets to go with some good batting

    Series Awards:
    Batting Award: Ross Taylor, good tour for him.

    Bowling Award: Neil Wagner, consistent with the ball, handy with the bat.

      Not really. I just haven't been playing very well

        Yorkshire vs Warwickshire

        Back to Yorkshire where they played Warwickshire. The managed 208 largely thanks to a Phil Jaques hundred ably supported by Tim Allison, back in the 1st XI after a spell in the 2nd XI. However the joy was short-lived with Warwickshire hanging on for a 3 wicket victory.

        Batting Award: Phil Jaques, set up a decent score

        Bowling Award: Azzem Rafiq, economical and took a couple of crucial wickets to have Warwickshire on the back foot.

            Yorkshire vs Northants

            We played Northants and failed. I am very unhappy with my teams batting.

              Yorkshire vs Unicorns

              I forgot to take a picture of the Unicorns match so lets just say I thrashed them.

                Yorkshire vs Derbyshire

                This was a thriller. We batted first and thanks to a Joe Root 150 we got 274. Then when they went to bat They scored 230 with Rashid and youth player Allemby taking 4 wickets each. Then we collapsed to 184 with only Tim Allison providing any resistance with an unbeaten 64. Then with 3 runs required for victory with just 1 wicket in hand Jonny Bairstow threw the ball to Allemby who had 8 wickets in the match already. It payed of with Palladino hitting the ball straight to Ballance to hand Yorkshire a 2 run victory!

                Batting Award: Joe Root, magnificent 150 in the 1st innings

                Bowling Award: Chris Allemby, he has played very well and he definitely is a prospect for the future.

                      NZ vs India

                      Is Vinay Kumar slightly overrated?

                      Daniel Vettori played excellently and was supported by Dean Brownlie and Doug Bracewell but never looked comfortable as India got home by 3 wickets.

                      Batting and Bowling Award: Daniel Vettori, over a 100 runs and 8 wickets, a fantastic duo.

                      Team News: De Boorder and Henry out. Nethula and Murdoch in. Vettori moves up to 6 and McCullum moves to no 7 with Murdoch up the top.

                          India won the T20 series 2-0. Couldn't be bothered to write about them as they were comprehensive. Same squad for the world T20. I am in Pakistan and Bangladesh's group.

                                I was so lucky to get through as firstly I lost to Bangladesh and then I narrowly beat Pakistan. A win of any margin would do it for Pakistan but if Bangladesh lost heavily I could still scrape through. I was lucky though as Bangladesh out of nowhere beat Pakistan.
