Alastair Cook has been nominated for the Active Essex Sports Personality of the Year 2018.
This summer the 33-year-old called time on his remarkable England career and went out with a bang, scoring 147 in his final Test innings against India at The Kia Oval. This memorable last stint meant that he finished his Test career in the same fashion that he started it – with a century.
Following his international retirement, Cook signed a new three-year deal with Essex Cricket, ensuring that he remains at The Cloudfm County Ground until at least the end of the 2021 season.
Cook faces competition from both Hannah Stodel and Jo Harten for the award, and voting is now open and will run until midnight on Sunday 18th November.
The winner will be announced at the Awards Ceremony in early December.
