List of Essex Cricket Board List A players
The Essex Cricket Board (ECB) team competed in List A cricket from 1999 until 2003,[1] taking part in the England and Wales Cricket Board's main knock-out trophy, known as the NatWest Trophy and then Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy while the ECB played in it. Established as the Gillette Cup in 1963, the knock-out trophy expanded from 32 teams to 60 teams in 1999, featuring all of the minor counties, and the Cricket Board teams from the first-class counties. The Cricket Board teams were considered to be roughly equivalent talent to the minor counties, and they all entered in the first or second round, prior to the first-class counties who entered in the third round.[2]
Alex Richards was the team's highest aggregate run-scorer, accumulating 172 runs for the team, while Andrew Churchill, Simon Moore and Arif Saeed each took 5 wickets for the ECB the joint most for the team. Saad Janjua, who only played for the team twice, scored the team's highest score with 91 against the Surrey Cricket Board in 2002,[3], while Tauseef Ali , has the best bowling figures for the team, after taking four wickets in the same match.[3] In all, 35 players have appeared for the ECB, of which 13 have also made first-class cricket appearances.
Players are initially listed in order of appearance, where players made their debut in the same match, they are ordered by batting order.
