Leicestershire County Cricket Club

Patel looked good at 3 and we move him to open, why? Also the low scores wouldn't even be that bad if there was a chance we'd do the same with the ball, but I'm braced for these to get a big score at a good rate as well.....Or hope that Ahmed absolutely bosses it.

[LBTufty]

Some wag on the BBC Cricket site has changed the Foxes scorecard to read "Leics won the toss and decided to fold quicker than Sunday's best tablecloth".

 

Or at least, I wish someone in their web team would.  

[Sunbury Fox]

Just seen the score.  isn't this meant to be a batting paradise?!

[HaroldBazBo]

I’ve had enough.

 

We’ve not looked like being in the box seat at any stage this season in any match.

 

Smaller counties very existence is being questioned. Derbyshire got the message and have got in Micky Arthur and Ian Bell. They absolutely whipped us on our own patch and run a tight knit small squad despite retirements and big players leaving.

 

They are proving what can be done.

 

Im afraid it’s time to change the coaching set up. We’re going backwards at a rate of knots and it’s a threat to the first class status of the club

Utterly embarrassing on every single level. 

 

Pointless entity 

 

Coaching and squad management a complete and utter joke.

Off to New Road Saturday. Hopefully we’ve started well over the first two days and well in the game.
 

Maybe a chance for the batsmen, Worcester have the least bowling points I believe. 

Could well be all over before Saturday. 

[CrawlingFox]

Lost for words.

[Tommy Fresh]

Bring back Rhodes 

[Cakey]

Could be over by lunch tomorrow if they declare on 250

[Lako42]

It's so exciting to see if we can make 100

[Ron Combo]

Our batting is beyond a joke, beyond parody. Fvcking hell. 

[Stinkenzo]

It was all a dream don't worry, you've just lost your 2nd wicket. Solid morning

Why is parkinson coming in at 10? Some of the decisions are baffling.

Which club does he play for?

[Lako42]

Parkinson and Wright most fruitful partnership = Complete failure

[Stadt]

Nixon has to go.

[Sunbury Fox]

Can only assume this must be a difficult batting wicket.  I'm sure we'll skittle them out for less.

Listening to him on the Cricket Show on Radio Leicester, he talks a good game but performances are getting worse and worse. Someone has to take accountability for this utter sh1te show and he has overseen recruitment, selection and coaching so must be that person.

Yeah its time.

[Kinowe Soorie]

The no.11 was the top scorer, and only player to score a six 

[Kinowe Soorie]

Does Claude Henderson having any managerial experience?

Ah he said quite clearly, the captain selects the team.

[adam]

Ben mike opening the bowling is another interesting choice. Should get them off to a good start anyway

That I think is beyond bafflement, with Ahmed coming in at 6 - for whatever his potential, this is still his first class debut and he is primarily a bowler.
