Eye on England: Michael Lumb


Michael Lumb. 12/2/1980. Hampshire CCC.
Michael Lumb has made big steps since moving from Yorkshire to Hampshire 3 years ago. Particularly this season, Lumb has started to become more consistent and has quickly gathered a reputation of being a quick-scoring, hard-hitting top order batsman. He made a staggering 124* against Essex at the Rose Bowl in the domestic Twenty20 competition and his performances in the One-Day format have also been very impressive. Lumb was recently named in England's 30-man provisional squad for September's Champions Trophy in South Africa, and if he continues his current form, there is no reason why Lumb shouldn't be making an appearance or two in the country of his birth in a couple of months time.
