Match Preview: Hampshire Men v Essex, Metro Bank One Day Cup
Hampshire Men take on Essex in the 2nd round of the Metro Bank One Day Cup with our first game at Utilita Bowl.
Hampshire Cricket can confirm that Liam Dawson - who will unfortunately miss the remainder of the 2020 season - has undergone successful surgery on a ruptured Achilles in his right leg.
Dawson, who fell awkwardly whilst batting during Hampshire's Bob Willis Trophy match against Middlesex at Radlett earlier this month, had surgery on Tuesday.
Following the successful surgery, Dawson is expected to make a full recovery after a minimum rehabilitation period of six months.
The all-rounder was playing his first competitive match of the season, after missing Hampshire's opening game due his inclusion in England's 14-man ODI squad to face Ireland in the three-match Royal London series at The Ageas Bowl.
