Yes great win that was...

Essex in with a shout

Tom Westley in the runs again.....this guy is a very good player and will only get better. 'potentials' for England batting are mounting up....

Man alive, someone makes a few or takes a few poles in the first game of the season and the England chat starts! 😂

yes too many to get. Hampshire did knock off a big score thou yesterday.

westley and Lawrence(this guy got a couple of tons last season) seem to be very decent

Lawrence is still there at the moment

[six and out]

To be fair Westley had 1400 runs @ 57 last season and a very good Lions tour to Sri Lanka.

quite true there are a few around who could be potentials..Clarke.westley.northest.livingstone.

Trott's dismissal was so stupid, not sure why he'd sky one up to third man

true, it was more of a general point.

100 for the young Essex lad today against a decent Lancashire attack.
Must be on the England radar... Lions first up soon?

More importantly, in a match-saving context. A big  coming of age innings for him,  I reckon.

I suspect he'll play for England more times than all the other 'prospects' named on this thread put together.

Doesn't Lawrence bowl some functional leggies too?

No, he bowls off-spin, with a very unusual action.
