Hi, I'm Cobbo.

Oh and what an attempt by both ourselves & Surrey to make a result of the championship game which ended today: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/shared/fds/hi/statistics/cricket/scorecards/2010/8/85514/html/scorecard.stm

Oh shut up. Leicestershire are and always have & will be a small county. We're performing well in the 4 day game with a very young squad. It's all kicking off behind the scenes, yes, but on the pitch we're not doing too badly considering the financial restraints & inexperience of a lot of our players. And have James Taylor, Claude Henderson & Paul Nixon had poor seasons? Nathan Buck? We have some strong foundations to do have a few good seasons, fingers crossed the off field issues are cleared up soon too.

Good win away at Worces in the 4 day version of the game. Victory within 3 days http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/shared/fds/hi/statistics/cricket/scorecards/2010/6/85559/html/scorecard.stm

Beat Lancs last night, at Old Trafford http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/counties/8721161.stm

Good win at Northants tonight - restricted to 18 overs per side http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/shared/fds/hi/statistics/cricket/scorecards/2010/6/85524/html/scorecard.stm Claude & Malik the heroes. McDonald batted well too, but his bowling really is not what you want in twenty20..

Won by an innings and 60 runs. Jigar Naik taking 7 in the second innings, Claude 8 in the mate (6 in the first innings). Superb performance and to do it at The Oval will be a memorable occasion for many players I'm sure.

Made 479 in our first innings vs Surrey - day 3 today, got them all out for 236 - Claude taking 6 Really need to turn positions like this into convincing victories, so hope we can do so...Claude & Jigar to rip them up.

Massive 4th wicket stand today of 360 between Taylor (206*) & McDonald (176*) - highest 4th wicket stand in Leicestershire's history We declared on 464-3

Well this week has been the only week he's made any runs for us.. The pitch was inspected by the ECB following the flurry of wickets and they judged it as 'above average' so we probably just batted like clowns. Along with that, conditions yesterday were perfect for pacey swing bowling, any batsmen's nightmare. Although I would only use the term 'batsmen' loosely as far as Leicestershire are concerned at the moment! Get du Toit involved in the 4 day game...he's had a couple of good knocks.

Good day for bowlers? Glamorgan all out for 166 Leicestershire 39-5!! Bloody hell, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory....again. We have a very long tail too...

Lost by 9 wickets to Glous today. Although Nicko did take his first ever wicket!

went down yesterday - cracking match and victory - du Toit batted superbly! Great to see Nicko flying about in the field too tee hee. Wayne White picking up superb figures.
