Leicestershire County Cricket Club

[Lionator]

We could lose both games and I’d say we’d more than likely qualify. But obviously if we win both then we likely top the group which puts us one game from the final. We can definitely win both!!

[Voll Blau]

Weather doesn't look ideal. One to try and bowl first in the hope we can skittle them for not very many?

[Bert]

It’s certainly bowl first weather, because more times than not DLS favours the chasing team. Can see it being a NR tbh. 

[Sunbury Fox]

I'm not based in Leicester so can't say what it is like on the ground now but the forecast for the rest of the day looks fine until 8 or 9pm.

[LCFCJoe96]

3 early wickets, good pressure to start up

Hoping we’ve won by that time

Looking like a one dimensional bowling attack here and missing Ackers.

 

When is Hanscombe off? Talk about a double blow..

He’s not now as far as I’m aware. 
 

We’re bowling well today. 

[HaroldBazBo]

Scriven's done well here. Maybe i had a weird dream about Hanscombe returning to Aus for a bit.

[Stadt]

Come on then all out for 190

So every game but the final? 

[LBTufty]

Yes - "He will be available for all eight group stage matches, starting with the trip to Surrey on 3 August, as well as any quarter or semi-final fixtures."

I'm sure he would stay if we get there. Many at the ground. Had to work!

[LCFCJoe96]

Hopefully thing's could be worked out with him if we do get there...should be well chaseable this

[when_you're_smiling]

Fair play to Salisbury and the coaching team for picking him. Wouldn’t have had him near the side.

 

Keep above the D/L in the reply which shouldn’t be too difficult. 

[Voll Blau]

Think it's a family issue as he wants to see his young son. Doubtful he'd stay on even if he had a bit more spare cash to sling at him.

[Hitesh]

Let's get there first before we decide who's around or not

Disappointed with the crowd, I’ve seen some of these fixtures really busy at other grounds.

A city the size of Leicester should be pulling way more in. 

 

Do we have the most apathetic Asian community in England where cricket is concerned

Good prediction! 

 

 

[Staff]

Hill turned down a 2 from Patel to get on strike, then lost his wicket 4 balls later and I absolutely knew he would. Every time I watch him he makes weird decisions when batting and scores feck all 

[Staff]

Got a feeling a collapse is on the cards 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

3 down now 

[Lionator]

100 from 186 balls. Take our time and it’ll be fine.
