    Good afternoon all
    Not a good afternoon for most on this thread :(

    And the Slurrey lot can bugger orf with their gloating.
  • He's very much a batting all rounder, so not the worst alternative.
    How about a vote for Arafat?

    ;)
  • Arafat making Roach look very ordinary - 6, 4 , 4. 2 
  • Good job we bat to 11........
    With all four number 11s individually making their highest ever score in this match
  • 262 all out. Surrey win by an innings and 37 runs. Parkinson last man out for 39 (147) with Arafat left stranded on 22* (22)
  • The fact that numbers 7-11 scored more in total than our top six rather says it all. 
  • Peter Siddle signed by Durham for the next 6 champo games

    At a time when we've stated that we couldn't find anyone to bring in. We only needed someone for a short stay before Swanepoel arrived, which I guess ruled Sid out.
  • The good news is that we don't have to play Surrey again in the CC. The other teams that only play once are Notts, Durham and Warwickshire. 
  • There is a three day game between a combined Essex/Kent 2nd XI and the South Asian Cricket Academy (SACA) at Billericay CC - the six Kent players are O'Riordan, Stewart, Jaydn, Qadri, Ekansh and Carney (albeit that he is a trialist for us). The six Essex players are Browne, Das, Allison (Charlie), Allison (Ben), Beard and Benkenstein.  

    SACA won the toss and will bowl

    I had to check that this wasn't an old social media message but we've signed Xavier Bartlett for the first 8 Blast matches! So we will have three overseas for that period of which any two can play in any one game.

    Thanks, AA.

    Confident that you'll keep us up to date with the progress of our lads.
  • Who are the 3 then @Addick Addict

    Xavier Bartlett
    2 Wes Agar 
    3?

    Cheers AA is this the bloke we thought had signed for the first CC matches, but the Aussie CB said he couldn't play in those?

    Wow! I will need to Google him.

    That is the correct. We signed him but then he was given a central contract from Australia and as with us there will always be an over-riding clause inserted in any agreement with a county.

    53-4

    The men out are Browne (1), O'Riordan (1), Das (29) and Stewart (2). The likes of Jaydn and Ekansh have yet to bat which is slightly surprising.

    Preferably the correct spelling though, as I misspelled his name!

  • The farce with the Blast this year, is that the semi and final will be 2 months later, meaning that hardly any of the overseas players will still be there.

    What a mess ! 

    But why aren't we surprised ? 
  • Essex/Kent finished the day on 191-7. Jaydn was 11* at the close with only O'Riordan and Stewart of the Kent cohort appearing in the top 8 meaning that Ekansh and Carney will be at best 10 and 11. One can only assume that both will be given a more meaningful batting role in the second innings. 
  • Essex/Kent declared on 244-7. Ben Allison 62 and Jaydn 38 the not out players. Three "Kent" members of the team, namely Ekansh, Carney and Qadri didn't get to bat. 

  • Grant Stewart is proving to be a bit on the expensive side. Following his opening spell he's figures were 5-5-0-0

    That’s a really boring football formation
