Danny Law Leaves Sussex
Danny Law joined the exodus from Sussex yesterday when the
all-rounder signed a three-year contract with Essex.
Law, 21, follows Ian Salisbury and Ed Giddins on the way out
from Hove and there could be others. Alan Wells, the former
captain, has asked to speak to other counties while batsman Martin Speight is considering a move to Durham.
Chris Waller, Sussex`s second XI coach, flew to Melbourne in
a vain attempt to persuade Law, who has been with the county
since he was 13, to stay. "In view of all that we have done for
him we are extremely disappointed that he is leaving," said
Nigel Bett, the Sussex secretary.
Law enjoyed his best summer last season, scoring 609 runs in
the championship and taking 44 wickets.
