#WARvSUR #CountyChamp #YouBears 🐻

Had a look at the weather forecast and it looks like it's going to be a grey and cloudy day with slim chance of rain.

May be a bit in it for the bowlers this morning so we need to knuckle down and set about chasing down Surreys total.

Stumps Day 1

Surrey 328 ao

Surrey took game away however bears took final 3 wickets fell for zero runs. Feels like we let Surrey back into the game. Need to bat long tomorrow and have wickets in hand at the end of the day going into day 3.

#WARvSUR #YouBears 🐻 #CountyChamp

Break for tea.

Surrey 198 for 6

Woakes picks up 2 quick wickets after the lunch interval, but Foakes and Lawes built a partnership of 133 with no further breakthrough by the Bears.

That session definitely belongs to Surrey.

#WARvSUR #YouBears 🐻
#CountyChamp

Fantastic start by the boys straight after lunch.

2 wickets in a over for Woakes to have Surrey at 65 for 6.

##WARvSUR #YouBears 🐻 #CountyChamp

First session of the season complete.

Surrey 41 for 4.

Solid performance by the bowling attack, Bamber being the pick, picking up 3 wickets.

Fair to say that was the Bears session.

Newly released shirts for the 2026 season. Mens Championship and men and womens One Day shirts.

The OD shirt looks very smart with a hint of the 1999 one.

My concept of thr Bears T20 Blast shirt for 2026 and the ODC shirt for 2026.

I wasn't too far off other than wrong competition.

#YouBears #YouBearsNation
#T20Blast #MBODC 🐻🔵🟡

A little bleached by the sun last season. Think I may need to purchase a new cap for 2026.

#YouBears #YouBearsNation 🐻

My concept of what I think the 2026 T20 Blast shirt should be. A bit of a nod back to the 1999 shirt.

#youbears #wccc #warwickshire #warwickshirebears #t20blast

Norman Gifford has died at 85. How very sad . A good innings.
Proper old school player. #wccc #youbears

Jakely Bethlode

Gracefold, powermost and brightlymost future.

Oh yes

#AusVEng #YouBears

With thr colour pallete being announced today for Warwickshire CCC, it has got me thinking what the new shirts would look like. I would like something like this for T20. Bit of nod to the 1999 shirt.

#YouBears

2024 - Birmingham Bears
2025 - The Bears
2026 - Warwickshire Bears

Personally had no issue with Birmingham Bears or simply just The Bears for T20, but this change should have happened last year.

#YouBears

Some absolutely world class haemorrhaging of runs there from the Bears. #youbears 😔
