It just IS cricket for Warwickshire

They say that football is a funny old game but judging by Warwickshire's title-winning season, that tag should be attached to the sport of cricket.

Today the Bears were crowned LV County Championship Division Two champions after picking up the four bonus points needed against Glamorgan.

Yet despite their achievement, Warwickshire are on course for only their first home championship win since APRIL 2007! And if they manage that then Ashley Giles' side would have won only five matches out of 16 on their way to the title.

Is it me or is cricket a sport when you can perform OK and still emerge as champions?
