Yorkshire head into the 2015 County Championship looking to retain the title they won last year – and Nick Knight is backing them to do it.

The Tykes were one of many clubs discussed by former England opener Knight in the latest Sky Cricket Podcast as he previewed the season.

The Sky Sports expert lavished praise on Yorkshire coach Jason Gillespie, as well as the team’s bowling attack, but explained what he expects from last term’s nearly men, Warwickshire, Sussex and Nottinghamshire, too.
