Essex CCC

Bit belated but congrats to the boys on winning the County Championship, first time for a while but worth the wait.

I thought they were in Div `2? - if they've won it, then says a lot about the quality of cricket in this country.

Got promoted last season, won the Championship this season.

Failure for Ballance. Westley didn't bat, but had injured his hand. Not sure that had anything do do with his non selection for England though.

Essex unbeaten and have destroyed utterly their opponents once again. What a season!

MrOneLung

Middlesex won it last year with 230 points from 16 games.

Essex got 248 points from 14 games this season

Good to see a couple of Michelle's from Sam Cook to finish the season. Don't know much about him, other than he isn't the Sam Cook who sang "wonderful world" and "a change is gonna come". Essex have produced several good bowlers recently, including Mills and Topley
