The squad stepped up pre-season training by getting under the floodlights at the 3 Ws Oval on Saturday evening. After the first week of training approached, there was an opportunity to get the pink balls out and have a night net, in preparation for the Day/Night encounter against MCC on Tuesday.
The players will be fighting for a place in the 11-man team, in what is set to be a great encounter against an MCC side featuring familiar faces such as Kent’s Daniel Bell-Drummond and Hampshire’s new signing, Sam Northeast.
The match is scheduled to take place at the Kensington Oval at 2:30pm on Tuesday 27 – Friday 31 March with coverage available via the Club’s Facebook and Twitter channels plus www.https://http://essexcricket.org.uk/.
