I have it on good authority (from Mrs Raggybear) that Warwickshire would have been better to have a bat on winning the toss last week.
It was the promise of seaming conditions and respect for Lancashire's pace battery that prompted the decision, however little were they to know that Jimmy Anderson had been kept awake all night by an owl hooting outside his bedroom window. Maybe if he'd been asked to bowl first thing while bleary eyed and Warwickshire hadn't been facing spin demon 14yo Simon Kerrigan last on a raging turner it could have been a different story.
In other cricket related Twitter news; Graham Swann's cat licked his dinner plate clean when he couldn't be bothered to take into the kitchen.
