Not surprising, pies are clearly his weaknessSamit flogs a long hop straight to point in the Notts game.
More runs than he got all last season. things are looking up.OK so it's only Loughborough, but Hameed on 174 when all around him failed is decent news
He did play 4 games for the 2nd XI last year - 420 runs at 84.00More runs than he got all last season. things are looking up.
Not sure why he didn't take the new ball tbhNot a bad outing for Jason Holder so far.
That season he had playing for Shropshire sorted him out.Not sure why he didn't take the new ball tbh
EDIT: I had no idea Ben Sanderson had such a good record. Looks nothing special, pretty much like your standard county plodder, but a FC average at almost dead on 20 is excellent
He did take 60 wickets at 16.70 last season, that had to help his average a bit as well.That season he had playing for Shropshire sorted him out.
Bit of a tough pill to swallow for Dan Lawrence being ignored in the winter by England Lions. He can't complain though after last season. But it obviously hits home after not achieving what you capable of.Essex have disappointingly lost three good wickets in the opening session. Cook, Wesley and now Lawrence all back in the shed, big partnership coming up between the experienced Bopara and ten Doeschate. For me, this Essex top seven looks strong but they really need to put the numbers on the board this season.
Be amazed if they stop up, can't keep letting players go and not replace them and expect it not have an impact.Yorkshire will be at the other end of the table if that is their team. Leaning not kicked on, Tattersall trying to prove he belongs and Kohler-Cadmore more limited overs. Coad, Paterson and Waite in the seam attack at once means Olivier only one with any pace through the air.
Harry Brook is a stroke-filled talent (many ways similar to Breetzke in SA from same age group) and when he clicks they will have a serious player. Obviously just trying to settle in to this level still and what works and doesn't work for him.
