Lancs beat Yorkshire today in a tremendous run chase that saw them knock off 121 to win in 60 minutes! That's 5 wins in the Championship to date for the Red Rose County.

I believe it's actually four wins from five CC, rain scuppered a certain victory at Hove against Sussex earlier in the campaign. A great run-chase today, 121 in 14 overs is some going in championship terms with the field pushed back. Top of the league with a game in hand.....only the Lancashire weather can stop the sporting powerhouse that is the red rose county from missing out on glory.....again.

.... and it probably will!

Great win listened to it on radio,pity there werentmore lancashire born and bred players in the side ,but a win is a win ,roll on a first chapionship title win for years
