*Official* English Domestic Season (2004)

Looks about as strong as a Essex team can be

Essex side (12, 11 to bat)

There's the problem - they picked 12 and were so stupid they didn't realise not all 12 could bat!

I just noticed Craig Spearman plays county cricket - can anyone tell me what other New Zealanders can be found in what teams, and also other international players? I've never been able to keep up with county stuff, but it'd be nice to find a team to support and players I can recognise.

Yup. The kiwi with the FA Cup ears has been one of the top performers from the land of the long white cloud over the last decade or so.

That's interesting... is Craig Spearman English?

 

[a massive zebra]

That's interesting... is Craig Spearman English?

I think he has an EU passport so is not counted as an overseas player. Andy Flower plays at Essex under the same conditions.

 

[Loony BoB]

Ah, okay. Thanks!

Hey Guys...Its me Venkat from India....

I would like to know as to when does the Twenty20 Cup matches begin ?? and secondly...Who are the official overseas players for Scotland this season ?? There has been a lot of confusion regarding this and latest Ive heard is that Sridharan Sriram of India and Yasir Arafat are playing for the Scots as overseas pros !

[venx86]

Yeah Loony....Craig Spearman is born to English parents who were in NZ i believe....thts why i guess he's considered as a player with an English Passport and is representing Gloucester !

You are quite correct.

Warwickshire use 8 bowlers in each innings and 9 in total (only 1 not taking a wicket)

Jim Troughton (career figures of 35-0-199-0 before today) finishes with 2.2-1-1-3.

Is there really any point in these UCCE games?

I guess it's simply time out in the middle and the First Class players know that they will do well so it's a confidence boost going into the season.

Totesport League Division 2

Middx v Sussex

Decent line-up. No Gavin Hamilton for Durham, but Plunkett starts; Mahmood and Hogg play for Lancs; Shafayat plays for Notts; Bresnan starts for Yorks; Benning and Murtagh play for Surrey; Bell and Wagg start for Warwks. Hoping for some good performances from these young'uns.
