Simon Harmer showed again why he has been the signing of the season so far as he spun his way to 5+ wickets for the third successive innings on Day One against Middlesex in the Specsavers County Championship, which included a spell taking three wickets for one run in 12 balls to reduce the visitors from 225 for six to 231 for nine.
With 14 wickets to his name last against Warwickshire, including career-best figures of 8-36, Harmer moved to the top of the leading wicket-taker table in the Division taking 5 wickets for 77 runs on the opening day, but this time with the pink ball that has been introduced for the day/night spectacle this week.
Simon spoke after play on the first innings which saw Middlesex bowled out for 246 on a green top at Chelmsford.
