Porter joins the 100 club

 

During this week’s LV= Insurance County Championship fixture against Somerset, Jamie Porter is making his 100th first-class appearance for the County.

In what has been an illustrious first-class career so far, where he has also represented England Lions on 7 occasions, he sits just 2 shy of 400 wickets at an average of 24.35.

For Essex, he has led the attack for 2 County Championship-winning sides as well as titles in the Vitality Blast and Bob Willis Trophy.

During this period of great success for the Club, he excelled with the ball and no player still playing the game has taken more than his 379 first-class wickets for Essex.

Porter sat down with Essex Cricket TV on the first day of the Somerset game to discuss the milestone and his career to date.
