The T20 World Cup...The Hundred...Counties...and the Middle East!

Lots to talk about with the teams for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup now decided, ahead of Sunday's Final. Debate about Pakistan players in The Hundred continues, with statements being made by the great and the good, but is the door still open for IPL-owned franchises to exclude players, as they do in other parts of the world? Essex continue their 150th anniversary celebrations with an event in East London, there's a full report, as well as an interview in "The Cricketer" with Jordan Cox - is he England's forgotten man? Plus all the latest from around the counties and updates as the troubles in the Middle East disrupt pre-season arrangements.
