An Essex Eagles XI will welcome a Premier Leagues XI to Chelmsford for a T20 warm-up match on Tuesday evening under the floodlights at The Cloudfm County Ground.
Ahead of the sold-out NatWest T20 Blast opener against Surrey on Friday, the Eagles will be honing their skills against a team of highly talented cricketers from Clubs across the region.
The likes of Mohammad Amir, Ashar Zaidi and Ravi Bopara have all been selected in the squad and are all expected to feature.
Gates will open from 6pm and the match will start at 7pm, with entry by a donation to the Essex Cricket Foundation.
Food and Drink will be available throughout the evening at Spinners Bar and the Pavilion will be open to all spectators.
The Active Essex Keeping Dance Alive group will also be performing during the interval.
A limited amount of tickets are available for our NatWest T20 Blast fixtures. Get them here, or call 01245 254010.
