All down to the final group game, a win gives a chance of reaching the quarter finals, subjet to other results.

Tyler McGladdery is the only new name in the squad, a left hand bat/SLA from Burnley.
On a trial as with the T20 squad and injuries we need additional bodies.

Finals day for the Second Eleven T20 competition, with 9 wins from 10 games Warwickshire have qualified for the semi finals.

Live scores links to follow.
10:30 Warwicks v Middx https://live.nvplay.com/ecb/#m1c295697-0086-4fc9-8b54-8add2196fc65
13:45 Sussex v Yorks
17:00 The Final

Good to see Andy Umeed is included in the squad, hopefully he has a successful return.

Another trip to Newport CC to play Glamorgan in the tenth game, & final group game of the SE T20 competition.
Having lost the game yesterday, Warwicks have an 8-1 record so far, and did win a friendly second game yesterday afternoon.

I'd expect a very similar squad today.

Game 9 (I think) of the SE T20 competition, can they maintain their 100% winning record?

Velani is a new name in the team, also Henry B returns.

Kish Velani is an ex Essex player, who career figures make Adrian Shanker's look good!

Another round of the SE T20 today, to be played at Moseley CC.

Expect to see some new faces in the squad, as the T20 specialists will be with the first team.

14 man squad https://edgbaston.com/fixtures/first-xi/steelbacks-v-birmingham-bears-15-june-2021/

This is the first game of the 2nd xi T20 competition.
I'd expect Pollock, Mousley, Hose, Ethan B, Thompson, Linnot and sidebottom to be in the core.

EJ Pollock, AJ Hose*, DR Mousley, CR Brathwaite, JG Bethell, EA Brookes, AT Thomson, JB Lintott, CB Simmons, MA Johal, T Mousley†

A key game to see if the side can bounce back after defeat at Durham.
One positive change to the side will be the first apearance of Pieter Mallan, which will strengthen the batting.
Possibly a return for Stone too.
Worcestershire have not yet won a game, and conceded over 560 runs in the first innings of their game with Essex.

What do people expect from this game? any team changes etc?
Sibley is still out,
Can Stone play 3 games in a row?
Any other changes?

Sadly Malan won't be available until the Worcestershire game the following week.

Sadly, still no spectators allowed at Portland Road.
