There have already been a few additions to the Honours Board this year and pride of place must go to Adam Jones who gets his name on the 50's board with that stylish 57 on debut.
Ian has added his second entry onto the 50's board with his thoroughly gritty 51 against Enfield at Lincoln Road.
A couple of record partnerships have been recorded as well this season. Graham Tyrrell and Mark Cox shared a free flowing 60 for the 2nd wicket at Botany Bay, and Adam Jones with Jim Downing smashed an impressive 87 for the 7th wicket against Tendring.
The 3rd, 5th, 6th and 8th wicket record partnerships are surely up for grabs in the coming months as the totals are not that particularly high.
A reminder at this point though for anybody scoring. It is vital that the fall of wickets are recorded accurately as a poorly kept book could make a potential record invalid.
The bowling honours board looks particularly bleak with only one entry. 5 wickets is the minimum requirement and surely it is only a matter of time before someone makes the breakthrough.
