He played for Mickleover Sports while he was with us I think? Think a fair few county pros play a reasonable standard of non-league in the winter. Remember Peter Trego made the headlines a few years ago for scoring from his own box in a Conference South game.

White scored last week in a similar scenario to Trego

Looks like a good fit from looking at him bowl, looks perfect for English conditions. Also played with Cozzie for South Australia.

Sadly missed out on Mennie offered more money by Lancs.Sadly County seem to be struggling Financially again Phil Atkinson the  Long term operations manager and the Events and Hospitality manager who only started in March have both been made redundant. By the club.

Promising signings. 

[Ted Maul]

Abbas is a great signing. If there was one thing we lacked more than most last summer, it was a strike bowler.

Good to see Carl Crowe back at the club too, didn't know he was there, is that a new thing? Was with England Women last year no?

Taught me everything I know about cricket Carl, great guy!

Indian quick in

[CosbehFox]

Yeah India getting their players experience of English pitches before the test series. I don’t see how it helps the county teams long term mind

He hasn't played test cricket since 2015 unlikely to be in the test squad

Seems odd for him to come over for a short time then; unless him thinks being in England puts him in the shop window. 

[HaroldBazBo]

He didn;t get an IPL gig. Rapid but loose

Horton

Carberry

Cosgrove

Dexter
