Leicestershire County Cricket Club

[Sunbury Fox]

Have let them get too many. After being 150-2 yesterday morning we've really let them back into the game now. Not feeling confident about this chase. 

[Lionator]

Dont trust us so I'm not going to check again until 3.

[Sir Steve Howard]

Captain's knock needed here big time

[Cakey]

Great start

[Sir Steve Howard]

Sol giving his wicket away, no need to be hacking at a ball that wide

[Cakey]

No. Sols shot was awful. Not even about playing in an attacking way, that's just a very poor shot. 

 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Well batted these 2, steadied the innings and we’re in a good spot now 

[Aus Fox]

Well played, just when it was looking a bit wobbly  - 95 more to go.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Looks like Worcestershire are going to win so we’ll fall further behind with our woeful bowling rate of -5 😩

[Sir Steve Howard]

Glamorgan absolute bottlers

Looks to be a problem 

[Cakey]

Glamorgan may still get them. Lower order is decent.

A slow over rate penalty when a result comes either way half way through the third day. Sometimes cricket is ridiculous.

[Cakey]

Is that penalty a certainty?

[Harpenden Fox]

Well done County. An easy win in the end, and we don’t often get the chance to say that!

Seems like we'll be losing 4 or 5 points looking at the rules.

[Ted Maul]

Think our promotion chances probably lie with Glamorgan pulling this chase out of the bag.

Will be tough... 95 runs with 3 wickets remaining. Need Billy Root to stick around 

[st albans fox]

Glamorgan won’t win 

down to last wicket with 89 still required 

[AjcW]

Still 3 games to go, definitely the chance of rain interuptions that may scupper Worcs and not us.... also could scupper us.

You never know, still think it's do-able it's just whether being in a final for something else distracts us at all. 

[HybridFox]

We are still in contention here!

I don't really understand how everyone thinks Worcestershire have this wrapped up, unless I've missed something? We have to play 3, they have to play 2, their 2 games are against 2 sides we're also playing, so they don't have it any easier. Add in there's a reason they comfortably have the lowest amount of batting bonus points in the division, they could quite easily be on the end of a hiding in their remaining 2 games. They'll obviously be favourites but it's still very much open for us.

[Cakey]

They haven't been promoted yet certainly. We have a chance. That game against them on a dodgy pitch did us no favours though.

Either way, it’s made a great change to be at the right end of the table in red ball cricket for a change. 

[Blueman1967]

Another good win, great to be up there, with a chance
