Leicestershire County Cricket Club

Exerting pressure with some nice tight bowling.

Injured player about to get 50, never change county 

[Sunbury Fox]

Middlesex 55-5 and only 150 ahead when said injured player comes in. He then bats on one leg to get 50 and help stretch the lead to 272. Looks a certain defeat now against a team that have lost 7 out of 9. Very frustrating. Missing Wright so much.

We chased 370 against these at Grace Rd, so there is always a chance.

True but this pitch doesn't look like one on which you score 300+ on day 4.

[HaroldBazBo]

Not sure. If Harris does another biggy and Akers plays to form who knows with some final hour fire works from Inglis.

They have Murtagh this time now on a pitch which was showing life until we went on a mad mission to knock Ishizaka’s head off

We can live in hope though 😂

I'm calling it now. So I can be mocked later. 

 

We win this!

A draw will be good enough to finish fourth if Somerset spin Surrey out today. 

 

The video coverage on the stream from Middlesex is excellent.

Really quick on the replays and for two amateur blokes on comms, it's some effort. 

 

8 down 

[Lako42]

**** you Eskinazi..............not sure why the hell I thought of this

 

 

[MaidstoneFox]

Wrapped up pretty quick, though Middlesex weren't hanging around. 293 is very possible given the quality we have at the top.

[Lako42]

Looking forward to it, so it will probably be over by Tea.

[Cake]

Great start. Evans missing a 70mph ball that was straight and stayed straight doing nothing at all. 

 

Just played the wrong line dear god

Already 0 for 1, Evans back in the hutch

Rumours started to say that ECB may delay or call off the Royal London Cup as they are concerned that a covid outbreak could mess up the 100 and they will need available players

Typical. Our best chance of a success, given the players other teams will be missing.

[Lako42]

Harris is absolutely critical here.

If he's still there at Tea then game on

Need to go at 3 and a bit an over all day, don't need to take too many silly risks.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Harris, Ackerman and Ingles all need to score heavily, any runs Hill and the others get are a bonus.

We have a great chance.

Boundary an over 

[MaidstoneFox]

Somerset 60/7 currently. Looks like it's turning at the Oval and there could be a result there - hopefully Surrey skittled by Leach after Lunch.
