Top order looks poorer without this season's Rehan at 3.

 

Budinger hasn't been too bad, seems to be getting better and better but Rishi has been having a pretty poor season. Holland hasn't shored it up today but to be honest I'm very disappointed in Masood, ok knock today but overall he's been below par when I really expected him to be really strengthening the top 3 at this stage of the season.

Tough prospect of Essex in a couple of days' time with them strumming up 417-6 earlier today.

 

New signing Curtis Campher smashed 123 red off only 68 balls; we either solve our opener issue or hope they've used up all their runs in one go!

Being totally outplayed here. Was expecting more from us, given we've only lost a few players to the ridiculous Hundred. Oh well, the CC is the main priority this season. 

Poor show today, totally outplayed so far but still in the competition.

No excuses if we don’t eventually qualify as the team we field is far stronger than most others.

Rehan named in the England ODI and T20 squads against South Africa and the T20 squad against Ireland. :appl:

So that's Rehan's season over for the Foxes, in all likelihood

Just not scoring enough runs or any where near tbh, 340 sort of wkt. Bowlers have no chance. On paper we have a really good batting line up. Shan batted for himself again, slow scoring rate then gave it away.

I was at Essex today to watch this game. Campher was sensational and must be a real worry for us on Sunday, but Surrey were really poor. Our boys will need to do some homework on this guy before the game and hope they can find his weak spot! Seamer Charlie Bennett was also on fire! He took five against our second eleven a few weeks ago.

3 successive home games coming up in the One Day Cup - how we do in those will determine if we make the quarter finals or not. 

Going to the derby game on Wednesday 👌

Shan should go on and make a 100 and we potentially win the game. Orr batted slowly but stayed in and upped his run rate, what Shan with all his experience should have done. 
As I mentioned in a previous post with the team we can field we have to qualify, no excuses.

Don't have a good feeling about this. No spinner in the team and Roman Walker starting does not bode well. 

Why isn’t Green playing? What do they honestly think Roman Walker can offer that he can’t?

That over was Ben Mike in a nutshell.

 

Carted twice then a woeful wide that Cox had to go full dive for, another ball that was borderline wide but Benkenstein went after and got him a wicket and then an absolute beauty to clean bowl Campher.

Suspect that mild strain he picked up right at the end of his second five-for needs managing, which may explain why he hasn't been able to hit those heights in game #3 and #4.

We'll lose this by at least 100. Porter has bowled 16 balls without conceding a run. lol

It's the hope that kills you.

 

Porter's just conceded a 2, time to take him off! lol

Saw him against Notts last week, they bowled him through and he took 4.  They cashed in after as the rest weren't up to much.
