What a mature innings from Allison, way beyond his years. Seems to be getting better and better. Good shot selection, played himself in on a tricky pitch and then showed his class with crisp clean shots. He spoke well in his interview also.
Good to hear how Sam is progressing. We need him back asap.
A match turning cameo from Mulder also. Without his innings we would probably have lost.
Some very tricky matches coming up and as every T20 game is something of a lottery, optimism for future progress always based on hope rather than reality.
Looking good now, let?s see how it plays out.

Wonder what Pepper thinks about Cox taking the gloves straight away after turning up.

Sounds like it's England that has decided they want him keeping.  About 3mins 20 in.

Still work to do in this group with Northants still to play who are unbeaten in there group, and two to play against Surrey , but at least we are not playing catch up has we have had to do previously.
 Strangely return to red ball, when they said playing en block, inconvenient now we have got onto a grove .

 Two stand outs from this performance, Bennett bowling into the block hole in the final over and Allinson creaming one over square without moving before or after, pure class.
 Bowling better lines under pressure was the difference .

 

Not sure it's that strange.  England have two more Tests coming up on 17th and 25th of June and if they need players to come in from county cricket then they will atleast have the chance of playing some red ball cricket to prepare for it.

And Harmer doesn't seem very happy about it. Essex should tell England to shove it.

Going unnoticed,  but doing a decent job, is Akhter, who is our second highest wicket taker, goes at under 8 and over, and got 3 - 19 last night.  Has also taken 3 catches. Seems to be improving each match.
