Leicestershire County Cricket Club

[Sparky]

Wont be qualifing for next years EPL then

[Cobbo]

Never mind

Lovely day of cricket in the sun though - you can't beat it.

[marko]

Even though we got an utter spanking I quite enjoyed it, at least we showed a bit of determination with the bat in the second half of the innings and but for a masterclass from Du Plessis it could have been a close finish.

[SMX11]

Du Plessis should have been out tbh, i said that lbw shout looked plumb from the stands <_< but we were out classed by a very strong team. However i thought we recovered well with the bat. The performance wasn't great but it was a lot better than the derby game.

[Cobbo]

If only du Plessis had ran when Croft was run out and not stayed in his ground...

[Guest]

I think I may have a bit of sun stroke.

[Ultra]

Need some of the bowlers to recover soon. The current batch aren't quite good enough.

Henderson should have played today.

[SMX11]

was he fit? i heard he had a virus since the durham game

[SemperEadem]

Yeah on the radio he said he hasnt trained as he has been ill.

[Ultra]

Sky said he was fit, but was apparently omitted because of our self-imposed limit on Kolpak players.

[SMX11]

Du Toit isn't kolpak.....

[SemperEadem]

Du Toit isn't kolpak.....

We are on about Henderson pal.

[Cobbo]

Du Toit isn't kolpak.....

We are on about Henderson pal.

We are, but he was making reference to the number of Kolpaks allowed to play and so du Toit is not one of them and so the number was not an issue.

In fact, I don't know if we had any playing? Isn't Dipps an overseas player?

Opps my mistake. No he swaped to kolpak so O'brien could be our overseas.

Where has O'Brien gone? I know Malik and Harris are getting match fit again so that should give us a few more options. Agree that Henderson should have played against Lancs in the 20/20. come on you FOXES!

[Fosse Boy]

51-0 off 5.

Decent start.

[SMX11]

Sensational start !

[Fosse Boy]

Allenby.

:worship:

I'll be gutted if we don't win this one.

[dandannieldanok]

Where the hell did that come from? We've been struggling to pass 100 in the previous matches now we're up to 200!

what a great effort, now lets try and throw this game away

[Fosse Boy]

Even at this stage I'm still not putting it past us!

[Sparky]

Superb win , lets have a right push for third , even if we dont go through at least we will qualify for next years English premier league and the big bucks that come with it

[Cobbo]

Now, that was enjoyable

Allenby has proven that he is a top player today. He took them apart and entertained us so much.

Nicko took an amazing catch too to get rid of Adams late on - rolled back the years!

I dunno if it has happened before that all 10 wickets were catches?

It has really made my week what a win.

[David Guiza]

Why use Allenby?? I know he has been our regular death bowler over the years but he has lost more games than he has won recently I would have stuck with Titch saying that they couldn't hit him off the square. Who the hell is Alex Roberts btw???

[Guest]

I really enjoyed that game. It was like watching a totally different team.
