Clare is from Derbyshire and Woakes from warks so its not all southern.
If they are trying to make Woakes a quicker bowler he will be far worse for it - he was the most impressive newcomer on the circuit last season and needs gentle and minor changes as he develops and not radical changes that will stuff him up and start all over again.
Surprising how few of these are from the leading counties at the top of the Div 1 last season. Surrey (x2), Essex and Derby all in Div 2.
Also worth noting most of these have already had injury problems and clearly the list has had to be limited to those available and not on other tours already (eg Bresnan etc)
