That's the most worrying thing for me. I know it can happen to any bowler but the frequency of these going down is a huge concern, especially at moments in the match where we've needed to exercise the greatest discipline.

You can't bowl him in high pressure moments where you need control, which is madness as he's top wicket taker

Some interesting stats I've seen on tonight's game. Naveed has a pretty poor economy up near 10 so far in the Blast but has bowled the most dot balls and taken the joint most wickets.

 

Shows that whilst he's bowling a lot of good stuff there are also a lot of hittable balls in there too (and the odd head high beamer).

Messed up a few times but he has really good moments. Not exactly reliable as yet but a very young man with alot of ability. I'd like to see that quick toe crusher a bit more. 

 

Better standard I know but imagine Joel Garners worth in T20. That yorker. Unplayable 

[Guest Lako42]

Well we're going to get mullered here. 

 

Probably not so bad my ticket for Friday has been cancelled

Went alright in the end, great knock from Kimber

[Cake]

Great knock from Kimber. Regardless of the result looks a capable player and didn't panic. 

[UpTheLeagueFox]

Leics got 41 off the last 14 balls

174-8

Kimber 53 off 28

[Paninistickers]

One of those scores you won't know is poor, par or strong until they bat. 

 

The late.flurry shows runs are doable though, which is worrying 

[Guest Lako42]

Kimber did well there.

Very similar innings unfolding here 

 

 

[Paninistickers]

Loving Ackermann"s work here. And Parkinson. 

[HaroldBazBo]

And Steel...

[Guest Lako42]

Tight bowling. 

 

Let's see if Naveen can manage some control

[HaroldBazBo]

He has already tonight. Only Griffiths going the distance. He's out of rythmn completely.

[Paninistickers]

Kin ada Griffiths

[katieakita]

Loving the Derby commentator giving them some grief

[Paninistickers]

Boom..stick that up yer sheep backsides!

[Stadt]

Naveen did really well, there is a player in there

[PAULCFC]

Kimber did well,Griffiths needs droping.Steel motm.

 

[Corky]

Good win, starting to get some form in this.

[CrawlingFox]

Good performance. Kimber with that rapid 50 from down the order is great to see, we know there are runs at the top so if he can bat like that often then we're batting deeper.

 

Great bowling all round, other than Griffiths who seems to either be serving up really good or really bad figures so far.

[HaroldBazBo]

Derby Dave has always been a good listen.

[Voll Blau]

Always fun to be there when half their fans are leaving at five wickets down. 

 

Held our catches well and bowled with discipline. Great to see.

[Corky]

Must be great for their fans to be watching T20 giants when we visit.

[UpTheLeagueFox]

60-0 Derbys, looking tidy, then the spinners took control, five wickets in six overs, should've won 2 of the first 5, would've changed the group table a lot, got to kick on now, hopefully give us plenty of confidence.

[Sunbury Fox]

Excellent win - who'd have thought we'd win by over 40 runs after being 80-5 at the end of the 11th over of our innings. 

 

Still think we need to reconsider the balance of the team. Mike is basically playing for his fielding and Griffiths is going for way too many runs. We can't keep going into games with him as one of our only 2 seam bowlers (given Mike is rarely trusted to bowl). Steele did well with the ball tonight but not sure we can regularly rely on him to bowl 4 overs without getting carted.

 

But fair play to the boys, they did excellently to turn things around tonight.
