Leicestershire County Cricket Club

[Lamby]

Was sposed to be going today but my mate couldn't be arsed. It would be a case of boring boring Surrey though.

 

I'll always be Kent as I'm a few minutes walk from the border

[katieakita]

Well played young man 100 Not Out

[SMX11]

Well done Lewis! One of the most hard working cricketers I have had to pleasure to play with and against.

[Corky]

275-5 now, superb.

[SMX11]

I really like how aggressive we appear to be in our approach. Trying to go at 4-5 rpo when conditions are in our favour.

[Brizzle Fox]

275-5 now, superb.

Last 5 wickets down for 17 though. We definitely seem to be moving forward so far this season but still a long way to go. Green shoots.

Pieterson and Sangakkara both in for them. Could be a big first innings deficit here. Not long until we're bottom again which is a shame. Hope it doesnt knock confidence much.

KP's got his hundred and his No1 fan Tubbs Morgan is all over it.

 

If KP's wife ever retires from fellatio duties Piers will have a field day.

 

Surrey currently 239-5.

[Voll Blau]

300 for KP. Doing our bit for England's Ashes chances, very patriotic.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

KP 34x4 and 13x6

[Sunbury Fox]

Next highest score for them 36!

[Kinowe Soorie]

Dropped four times?

[oxford blue]

He looked good in the Parks at Oxford last month but this must have been quite remarkable as Leics do have some good bowlers - perhaps not fielders! Last wicket has put on 110 of which the no.11 has scored just 5

[Sunbury Fox]

They were 283-8 and finish on 528-9. That is just ridiculous, even allowing for the fact that KP is an amazing player. Yet again we have screwed up a promising position. A certain defeat looms again.

[Ross-Kemp]

Currently 161-2.

Eckersley has hit a century.

[Narborough_fox]

Stumps at the end of the day, 310/5 with a lead of 45. Last day could be interesting but to avoid a defeat after Pietersen's innings would be brilliant. 

[Vicki Vixen]

I was at the Oval today. We played well, especially Eckersley and Robson who looked very very comfortable and gave up no chances until their wickets fell. I was, however, shocked at the size of Cosgrove seeing him in person for the first time. To call him overweight is an understatement, the guy looks morbidly obese.

He's a big ol' lad.

 

He was in Burger King the other day ordering a Bacon Double Cheeseburger; he managed to resist the fries and coke though.

[marko]

Some stubborn resistance by the lower order and tail today.

 

Certainly feels like things are moving in the right direction.

[Corky]

463-8, 198 ahead with 33 overs remaining.

 

Even if we lose we're showing plenty of spirit and not rolling over with the bat as we have done before. Surrey are a huge club and we're making life difficult for them.

Absolutely superb 2nd innings with the bat.

Bonus point secured and I can certainly see us holding out for a draw now, a result which looked very unlikely.

As Corkey said, Surrey are a massive team so this could be a right result.

[Narborough_fox]

Apart from Robson, every player who had a chance to get in and score some runs got above 20. Great batting performance all round and should get a draw which looked massively unlikely after KP's innings. 

 

Encouraging signs. 

[AjcW]

Just set up a T20 game... safe to say it's not going well... 48/0 off 4.... 

[AjcW]

81/0 off 6

[I am Rod Hull]

This is going horrifically 

[Corky]

I half-expected it, if we could've survived until the last 15 overs we'd have drawn, Surrey's batting line up is too good for this level.
