Liquor? After watching the likes of Jacques du Toit and Wayne White up and down the country, I'm surprised RR didn't end up a crack addict.

 

2 old school cricketers popping back to there  car every half hour for a fag Apart from Josh Hull don't think we have any smokers anymore although it  don't seem to have harmed Ben Stokes or in the past Botham and Warne

Surely Josh Hull doesn’t smoke?

Maybe he vapes. That's what all the cool kids do these days... Apparently 

[OwnGoal]

Could do with a wicket. A lot of reliance on young Rehan is a concern. Someone else needs to come to the party. 

[BigWesMorgan]

This potentially could get interesting, especially with the favourable batting conditions

[Ted Maul]

There we go.

Plenty of time left, not much batting to come, the pitch will be doing more and more as the day goes on- backing them to get this over the line.

Don’t get me wrong, it would be one of the greatest chokes of all time

Even by our own standards.

Guest has outstayed his welcome and Rehan has shown him the door

Big wicket.

Not seen him.this year but he did last year.Remember Les Taylor used to walk.out with this rest of the players at the start of play with a day in his hand

[OwnGoal]

Another before lunch be nice but not a lot happening when Rehan isn’t bowling. 

[OwnGoal]

That’ll do nicely.

Was that after a few bevvies after a win though? 
 

I just can’t imagine an international cricketer smoking in 2025 haha

Alarmingly Kimber has been more dangerous than Trevaskis.

[MaidstoneFox]

Wicket for Kimber. Perhaps a touch high, but still given.

[everton carr]

Don't usually like to hear rival commentators criticising the club but Fletcher calling the club a disgrace for voting for a fixture reduction  was spot on.Understand 6 clubs voted to keep the status quo with 7 needed let's hope another county reconsider

Derbyshire has gone to Chappell but will he be the answer to their prayers?

If you went on this match alone Kimber would be chosen in the spinner spot. 

 

I also didn’t realise until was watching the stream that Rishi Patel has the best first class bowling average in both the Blast and Division Two. He has only bowled one over in the Blast mind. 

[Sunbury Fox]

This is getting frustrating. Looking a bit toothless.

I think it was turning more on day 2 to be honest! 

 

Still doing enough, this'll be done by tea. 

[OwnGoal]

No way we’d have gone close to winning this without Rehan. His contribution has been ridiculous. Along with the left armer for Derby they’ve been the only two bowlers to look threatening.

He needs to have a go at the players then who haven't helped matters at all with their PCA vote. 

[MaidstoneFox]

Rehan's got his bowling average down to 36 now.

 

His current total of 13 wickets, are the best match bowling figures for Leicestershire ever, beating Haydon Smith's 12-69 in 1938 at Tunbridge Wells.
