With Blue Square and William Hill, Warwickshire are slight favourites at 4/6 and Essex 11/10 against, but predictably tight.
|
|
The first two days are set to be excellent, dry sunny weather, with temperatures 18oC tomorrow and 15oC on Thursday. However, despite only a slight drop by a degree or two in the temperature, Friday and Saturday will see rain and play looks set to be unfortunately lost.
