Profile

Ben Foakes is the latest promising wicketkeeper-batsman to emerge at Essex, joining Adam Wheater in providing competition for captain and former England keeper James Foster. A regular at age-group level for England, Foakes was his country's leading run-scorer at the 2012 U-19 World Cup, having scored 93 on Championship debut earlier in the summer.
