Yorkshire

Biggest and most successful county in English cricket. Previously famous for only selecting players from the county despite their most successful captain, Lord Hawke, coming from Lincolnshire. That rule is now out of the window and several outsiders have been allowed in. Spent the 1970s, 80s and most of the 90s in a trophy-less wilderness. Spent much of the 90s producing more Test players for Australia than they did for England. Have a history of pissing off their better players and see them go on to great success with other counties (see Close, Brian; Illingworth, Raymond).
