Stars of the County Championship Cricket

We've been talking to Yorkshire bowler Ryan Sidebottom about England's dismal showing at the World Cup, the new County Championship season, and the passing of legendary commentator Richie Benaud, who has died aged 84.
Ryan SidebottomEngland were very predictable at the World Cup, with no left-arm seamer, no left-arm spinner, no mystery spinner. When you look around all the other countries, even the minnows had all variations covered, but we were very samey. I'd like to think we won't make that mistake again because we have a lot of variety in this country.
"There are players like Adil Rashid, Scott Borthwick, James Vince has been very consistent, scoring heavy runs and is becoming more and more mature. Ben Stokes, England were very quick to drop him but he adds that variety, he smacks the ball out of the park, is a brilliant fielder, and bowls heavy pace. Mark Footit, if they do look at a left-armer, is still young, has got pace and can swing the ball into right-handers. He's the type of player that we have really missed."
