Looking forward to see what all the fuss is about with Dan Lawrence now that he's levelled up in life.

I know Elgar is almost 37 but sounds like he was pushed out the door.
S Africa are hardly playing any Tests & he wasnt given much encouragement to keep playing.
He is definitely still in their best Test XI

Sam Cook drags Essex back into the match with a hat-trick that enables them to limit Notts lead to 40 runs.
Chapeau Little Chef - now let's hope that Elgar and Kushi
can negotiate a tricky final session.

And your point is ?
By the tone of your negative response I assume you're a West Ham fan - such a positive outlook !

No point at all just pointing out who are our overseas players are.
I support Essex, I went to Trevor Bailey's cricket school.

Joshua Marmaduke Biscuit-Barrel De Caires
Taken his Mum's name so he isnt suspected of having dirt in his pocket presumably
Essex recover to lead by 289 with a day to play
Only that game & Worcs v Warks have any realistic chance of a result though not sure how much play either will get
Surrey game at Lancashire lost a load of play as the Northerners decided that although it was dry it was too windy to take the covers off

Stuart Broad obviously retired at the right time
Notts capitulating & the last 9 years without an Ashes series win
Guess we will have to endure his pointy head on Sky this summer instead

great win - and match figures of 10/73 for Sam COOK
275 wickets at 19.48 in his career. Phenomenal

Worth a central contract?
Could be if the selectors had the balls to move Anderson on or call the bluff of the piss-taker Archer

Superb win, hopefully we don't have any points deducted though.

Stew,
Feck me - just seen those career figures for Cook so far. That is superb. Averaging less than 20 per wicket after 74 first-class games.
I knew this guy was good - but that's got to turn the head of any selector at some point, surely? I have no idea if he'd thrive at test level (some say he isn't quick enough, but they said that about Broad when he broke through: and he's the second highest seamer for wickets). But surely that's worth a few games to see how he goes?
