Heroics against Nottinghamshire

When Warwickshire played Nottinghamshire at Edgbaston on June 6, 2003, Collins Obuya, on his debut, took his first championship wicket, that of Kevin Pietersen caught and bowled for 221. On May 30, 1975, Alvin Kallicharran (116), Rohan Kanhai (92 not out) and Bill Bourne (51) powered the Bears to a victory target of 371 in 250 minutes against a Notts side which had benefited from 27 leg-byes in the match. On July 24, 1946, Eric Hollies reaped 20.4-4-49-10 in Nottinghamshire's first innings (although the visitors still went on to the match by seven wickets). But there will be no Bears heroics today because the ground is covered in water and umpires George Sharp and Peter Willey have already called off play for the day.

Warwickshire squad: Westwood, Frost, Bell, Trott, Troughton, Ambrose, Botha, Patel, Barker, Carter, Woakes, Anyon.
