Strong only made two first-class appearances for Sussex.[1] He then made the move to Northamptonshire in 2000 taking 31 wickets in his 13 first-class games spanning over two years. During a one-day game against Gloucestershire, he conceded a record 99 runs from his nine overs (a new record for the most expensive analysis in the one-day league surpassing Dominic Cork's 96 conceded against Nottinghamshire in a 50 over game in 1993, though he bowled only eight overs).[2]
