Watch: Shocking leave by English county player

Watch: Shocking leave by English county player: County culture reveals more than the region’s century-old love and association with Cricket. Counties are the small yet peaceful provinces of the United Kingdom, where cricket is the norm. We may say cricket is a religion in India but for the people residing in Yorkshire, Middlesex or Sussex, playing or participating in county cricket is every one wish. People do try to participate in the contest at least once in their lifetime.

The first word that comes to mind on hearing the word “County Cricket” is first class cricket – unofficial records. Moreover, for international cricketers, playing county cricket is the shortcut to regain form and make a comeback to their respective national squads. What remains hidden from the eyes of spectators and cricket experts are the innumerable talents and some of the surreal performances on the ground.

Whether you know it or not, but it’s only in county cricket that a player – Barney Gibson aged 19 retired earlier this year. He had hung his boots at the age when other players play their debut matches. Such is the surreal world of county cricket where things happen beyond our imagination.

Just a recent while back, Middlesex fast bowler James Harris bowled the swing of the decade but as usual neither the media nor the fans have come to know about it. Here is the video that is sure to surprise every one watching it. We are well aware that in test matches, certain balls are unplayable but James Harris’ in-swinger was the most astonishing one. He bowled an in-swinging delivery to a right-hand batsman that swung straight to his wicket and bowled him out. It will keep your eyes wide open for sure.
