A number of milestones fell for our bowlers in 2019 and several have more milestones to look forward to in 2020

It's not just our batsmen who have been setting new records and achieving milestones during 2019, the bowlers have been at it too. Here's a look at those who passed personal milestones this season and those who have milestones in their sights in 2020.

Matt Ellis - the evergreen Ellis recorded 28 scalps during 2019, which took him past 600 career victims

Steve Ingram - 19 wickets in 2019 took 'Termite' past the 300 wicket mark. The left-armer closed the season on 310 wickets

Chris Preston - a stellar season of 56 wickets across all teams and formats for 'Windmill' took him past a career landmark of 250 victims, finishing the season on 253

Joe Charity - 30 wickets this year, which was also a career high, saw Joe go past the 100 mark with 75 of those being in the last three seasons. He currently sits on 117 wickets

Will Rossiter - another spinner who had an excellent season, finishing with 42 wickets to take him past the 100 mark for the club since his arrival from Narborough & Littlethorpe in 2017

Neil Pullen - 14 wickets for 'Pullo' during the 2019 season took him past the 100 wicket mark for the club since joining in 2014. The seamer finished this term on 111 scalps

Thomas Blay - the third spinner on the list and another who had an excellent season. The youngster doubled his career wicket tally with 33 victims to take him past the 50 mark for the club - he finished the season on 66 wickets

Archie Bates - an interrupted season saw the promising seam bowler only register nine wickets, although that was enough to take him past the 50 mark for the club - finishing the season with 58 wickets
