Leicestershire County Cricket Club

[Guest]

If anyone is interested, I took some pics tonight, located here.

My first ever game tonight. What a way to start! Easy.

[Ultra]

Better get you a season ticket!

[FleckneyFox]

What kind of prospect is Harry Gurney? I was pretty impressed when i saw him on sky. And David Lloyd seemed to like him. How much of a chance do the other youngsters ie. Taylor, Smith, Wyatt, Buck, Cobb and Thakor have of making it?

Good pics looks like a good ground to wathc cricket especially 20/20. Hoping to catch a LCCC game around july of next year will the nat west games be going on around then.

Thanks

It's a nice little ground, but if it's going to be a hot day, be sure to take a hat and some sunscreen, as there is very little cover. Similarly, if the weather looks iffy, then make sure you have a decent brolly!

As Lisa says, it's a nice ground. I prefer to sit on the yellow seats next to the Meet when I go, you get a decent amount of shade.

Don't really know much about the others, but if these all have decent seasons they'll perhaps be tempted by one of the more fashionable counties (and their money). I've played against Cobb and Buck before, and they've both been touted as potential future internationals from a young age so who knows what they might achieve in future?

Damn you Leicestershire for beating my county Notts.

This was about his bowling.... i have always rated him as a batsmen

I have played with Bucky for many years, in my opinion he is going to be one of the best in the county circuit if he keeps his feet on the ground. Ability wise at the minute I would say he is better than Sam Cliff and Alex Wyatt . Shiv Thackor is touted to be the best 15 year old in the country.

[Milky]

Our match still hasn't started it seems

144-6

The wheels sort of came off towards the end. Should still be competitive hopefully.

[SemperEadem]

Gurney has been something of a revalation seeing as he was released by the county last season.

[Corky]

Going to be a tight finish.

Great over so far from Hendo

What is that all about, in all of the websites / cricket mags it's talked about him being released then re signed on a 1 month contract, extended etc. Yet, in all of the Merc interviews / columns, they talked of him as one of the main prospects throughout the winter. Very odd.

[Guest]

Yes! Another win for the Foxes!

[Corky]

Two wins in two days.

[Sparky]

Woohoo

[Corky]

And Notts are bottom :w00t:

[David Guiza]

Sounds like a gd performance alround. Esspecially Henderson . Shame about that collapse towards the end of our innings else could of been another high score.

Mate i think its that the mercury dont really have a clue. He has been brilliant since he came back, bowling alot faster and sharper than the past 2 seasons.

Great win again tonight really performing well!

[Milky]

Wooo!
