Tremlett earns PCA award

Chris Tremlett's impressive form, which resulted in a call up to England's one-day squad during the NatWest Series, has earned him the Professional Cricketers' Association's Performance-of-the-Month award for June.

Tremlett's performances for Hampshire attracted the attention of the judges. In seven matches he has taken 39 wickets at 20 apiece, including a hat-trick against Nottinghamshire.

On his one-day debut against Bangladesh, he took 4 for 32, leading Marcus Trescothick to say: "There is definitely something there with him. I've been impressed. He has obviously got a lot of bounce because he's so tall and I like the way he thinks about the game as well. He knows the right moment to bowl a yorker, to bowl a slower ball or to bowl a bumper. He's a handful with his height and if we can get a few more yards of pace out of him, he'll be even better."

Tremlett receives £750 from County Championship sponsors Frizzell.
