I see we're playing at home Friday night against Durham, I'm thinking of taking my lad. I haven't been to Grace Road since I was a kid myself. Daft question probably but do you just turn up and pay at the gate?

Cheaper to buy on the website I think

Trevaskis has been unlucky not to play more. Can’t be that sharp and his batting performance was spot on too.  
 

Incredible we have players as good as him waiting in the wings compared to Finan, Sakande, Rhodes et al

Lccc have a good section on the Wisden podcast this week interviewing Taylor & Hill about the recent success and producing England players.

Deffo worth a listen imo, interesting about how Taylor and Fons are driving a change in culture and mind set on approach to games.

We're about 23 mins in if you want to skip past  the windes segment.

As @Lako42said, it's probably cheaper buying on the website - the day before.   (and also makes sure you get a ticket just in case they "sell out"!)

 

https://www.leicestershireccc.co.uk/ and click 'Buy tickets'   or https://www.tixr.com/groups/leicestershire-ccc

 

If you have a look, you can browse the various ticket options at your leisure and see which one of the 5 options is most applicable

  General Admision,  Junior (U16),  Single Parent ticket,  Family Ticket,  Group of 5.

Kimber getting us ahead of the run rate was crucial. The others batted marvelously. Seriously impressed with what Trevaskis brings to the team.

 

And Cox is exceptional. Also a decent catch and great stumping. To go with Rehan's bowling, and batting, it's a top performance.

 

Have a read of the Observer article posted on here recently. The Lancs CEO mocking counties like us. They deserve all they get.

 

Can anyone share this? We have beaten them twice already this season and one draw where they were saved by the weather.

Really great listen, Taylor speaks brilliantly as you would expect.

Does the club even have an online shop? 

 

If they do the website is horrific at letting you know about it

Little nugget in a good debate on why Blast attendances are down. Our opening gate was higher this year, compared to 2024.

 

 

Ours are surely up because of our championship form. And also last year was especially crap due to the weather and other factors.

Surridge seem to sell some bits but not replicas. We did a release saying replicas are store only, which seems massively backwards, surely if they don't feel they can fulfill online orders let Surridge sell everything online.

Total madness. I live in London so went online when I wanted to buy a CC shirt recently, only to find out that I had no choice but to drive to Leicester to buy one from the shop in the ground!

Gutted Ahmed is missing but I suppose pleased for him at the same time. Contributed massively with bat and ball against Lancs. I'm assuming Ben Mike is still injured? Handy option to have in this format as a 7 or 8 to get you a quick 15-20

Wonder who will replace Rehan? Between Hill and Mike, I guess. We seem to have very few top order batting options. Hilly seems to struggle in this format but taking him out in favour of Mike would mean that the all rounders start from 5.
