Thirteen is a number seen as unlucky by some – but not if you’re Middlesex County Cricket Club. That’s how many times the Seaxes have claimed domestic cricket’s greatest prize, the County Championship.

Edward VII was on the throne when Middlesex first flew the Championship ensign above the iconic Lord’s pavilion, while few will forget the scenes surrounding their most recent success in 2016.

We trace those triumphs from the days of Sir Pelham Warner, through the Compton and Edrich post-war successes to the golden years under Mike Brearley and Mike Gatting and culminating in Toby Roland-Jones’ hat-trick seven years ago.

With the help of the archives and eye witnesses, such as Gatting, John Emburey, Mike Selvey, Norman Cowans and more, we recapture the drama and the inside story of the greatest days in Middlesex’s history.

With the future of red-ball cricket under the microscope, there could hardly be a better time to relive the triumphs of those on the north side of the River Thames and reflect on the oldest form of the game.

A quote from the review

"At a time where there is so much negativity surrounding cricket, it's a real tonic to find such a positive book, one that reminds the reader, not only of the rich history of the club, but also celebrates the real strengths of the Middlesex teams through the ages; so many giants of the game walk the turf of the most iconic ground in the world."

Compact, Versatile, and No Rust So Far
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2", Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
I looked around quite a bit before buying this because a lot of sellers offer the same or very similar design. I even saw versions with a dedicated spot for a Scrub Daddy, but I didn’t feel like paying extra for that. I went with this one hoping it would still work for my setup, and it absolutely does. I’m limited on counter space, and this doesn’t take up much room at all. The removable brush holder cup is a big plus, I removed it and use that space for my Sponge Daddy, which fits perfectly. It also fits my hand soap and dish soap bottles without any issues, and I use the brush holder section to hold clean utensils. I’ve been using this for almost two months now and wash dishes constantly, so there’s pretty much always some water dripping from the sponge while it dries. So far, there’s been no rusting and no color chipping, which was something I was concerned about. Overall, it works perfectly for my needs and feels well made.

Design Is Great. Material Was A Very Poor Choice.
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
The gauge of the wire used is pretty thin. There is no real weight to this item. It does do exactly what I need it to do as it allows me to dry my dish cleaning brushes and my Dawn Puff brush in an organized manner. The taller basket is nice especially for my long handled brushes. It would actually be nice if there was a second basket since I have more handled brushes than anything else. I am also really happy that I went with this design where the drain pan is the entire length rather than a little spout where all the drainage is focused. The full length lines up better to usage of each individual brush. Due to its materials, I don't have much confidence in this being around long. So far, the black coating has held up and no r*sting (do not want to jinx myself) has occurred, but if and when it does, I fully expect the metal to fold like a house of cards. The design is actually great. The materials are its Achielles' Heel.

Great quality
Color: Black, Size: 7.9" x 3.7" x 6.2"
Great quality and super sleek to set up on the counter behind the sink. Got it for my mom as she always put her sponge in the sink and dishes ended up on top and you had to dig for the sponge. She has used this everyday since! It drains just like it states and doesn't keep water. Love how this saves the life of the sponges and space in the area.

Great sink organizer!
Good quality storage/organizer for the kitchen sink. It’s stable and can hold an assortment of dish cleaning products close to the sink. It has a plastic dish underneath to collect drip-off water. This is exactly what I needed to organize!

Great kitchen organizer
I love this handy kitchen sink organizer! I like things to be neat and tidy. This little product does the trick! It holds my dish liquid, hand soap, brushes, disposal cover and my sponges. The size is perfect and it looks great next to my sink. The organizer is made of metal and is built very well. It even has a drip pan. No more stuff all around the sink. This keeps it all organized so well. Love it!
