Leicestershire County Cricket Club

Notts are an absolute joy to watch in any Short form cricket and have been for several years now. Not surprised at all they've hit 400. 

 

Given International teams are regularly doing so now I think it'll become a regular county occurrence too.

Worth of a ban this.

I live there so I get to watch them a lot. Hard to deny...

Hit a quite respectable 303 and still lose. Fair play to Notts.

Made 316-9 according to the BBC Sport app. Either way, a decent effort to make 300+ and save their run rate from taking too much of a battering.

Does Varun Arun have to play and have to open the bowling as part of his contract? Would not get picked if he wasn't the overseas. No control at all.

One day cricket has changed completely from years ago when 270+ was seen as a good score in 50 overs, batsmen have got all the shots now thanks to T20 cricket, pitches are better and a bowler needs a lot of skill and nouse to survive in the modern one day game, It does make me wonder why the Yorker is so little used now.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Good to see county’s overseas bowler Abbas taking wickets, looks a good signing.

[HaroldBazBo]

He's ripping the piss which is excellent.

 

England are woeful. From the top down.

[Ted Maul]

Derbyshire have set us 212 off a reduced 33 overs- achievable if we bat properly.

[Voll Blau]

Can see their ground from where I work. It's grey as everywhere around so not convinced we'll get the full 33 in.

Carberry no longer captain.

No idea, it’s on the BBC cricket page.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Looks like a defeat vs Derbyshire, thought it would of been a good chase.

[Sunbury Fox]

Great effort to get so close having been 139-7 at one point. 

[UpTheLeagueFox]

We keep taking one step forward and two back. Nicko's got his work seriously cut out.

[Cake]

Did well at the end but really should be able to chase that down. Wells played really nicely, possibly needs to bat higher. 

 

Strange with Carberry. Average of mid 30s and I would say a steady start. Fired. Must be more to it than that?

We did but some of the top order batters need to crack along a bit, as I’ve said on a previous post 1 day cricket has changed, slow and steady is not enough anymore.

[HaroldBazBo]

Delport back for Sunday will help.

 

Not sure what's happened with Carberry, rumours of a big barny with the coaches but could be nonsense.

 

Hopefully he keeps playing as i think he'll come good with Horton as openers. Last year was a shambles with Robson pushed off thanks to PDB and Dearden chucked in at the deep end.

[SemperEadem]

£1 tickets for all on Sunday.

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Good recovery from Cosgrove and Eckersley after a poor start.

[SemperEadem]

Hope they get a good gate today.

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Yorks cruising to victory. This game is effectively over.

[Ross-Kemp]

Apparently Carberry has serious issues with his eyesight.

 

Yorks winning this at a canter
