Bell and Trott share prestige accolade

By Brian Halford on Oct 19, 09 04:03 PM

Ian Bell and Jonathan Trott tied for the prestige accolade of top three-scorer in the championship for Warwickshire last season.

Bell and Trott each scored 24 threes in four-day cricket, just ahead of Jim Troughton who recorded 20.

The full list.
24: Bell, Trott
20: Troughton
15: Woakes
14: Ambrose
13: Westwood
12: Botha
8: Clarke
6: Frost
4: Tahir
2: Carter, Maddy, Patel
1: Javid, Rankin, Sreesanth.

Top of Rikki Clarke's winter agenda must surely be how he can score more threes in 2010.

He didn't do too badly in the championship six-hitting stakes though.

The list.
9: Carter
8: Clarke
5: Troughton
3: Woakes
2: Patel, Sreesanth
1: Ambrose, Botha, Trott.

Ian Bell faced 1,930 deliveries in the championship and failed to hit any of them for six.

But I do recall Bell hitting a six in the Ashes test at Edgbaston.

I echo your sentiment on Clarke running more threes.

It can only be seen as a failure on Clarke's part for failing to convert. Often he's got a two and then failed to push on and make it a big two or even a three. One for the batting coach I'd think.

I recall Clarke once being sent back by Woakes when he had started out for a third. So he did manage a two-and-a-half.
