[HughJanus]

Leicestershire against a fat bloke in a loud shirt?

 

[Billsballbag]

Good day that, could set up a sizeable lead tomorrow.

 

[DagenhamFox]

Let’s aim to get to 450 for max batting points. Be a good day down there today.

 

[DagenhamFox]

Well that’s not gonna happen. 183-6 at lunch. Given the dry, warm weather I thought it’d be a batters paradise.

 

[buz_not_buzz]

150-2 to 204 all out... 'kin'ell. After Ackermann went (great catch at 2nd slip but...) it was just a procession. Sigh.

 

[What?]

I blame Rodgers

 

[mickyhoss]

12/2

 

[Paddysfoxes]

179/8 close off play ,lead by 134.Need to finish early tomorrow

 

[Brauny]

Gloucs 134 ahead with 2 wkts remaining.
Current partnership as put on 33, so County need to finish them off quickly in the morning

 

[Brauny]

Beat me to it Paddy

 

[mickyhoss]

I don't think we'll go up

 

[TopFox]

1 up - no chance
2 up - possibly

 

[peatlingfox]

I don't think we'll go up

Glamorgan putting up a fight against Worcs but they probably need too many already so looks like Worcs for second spot. Losing to them twice very costly!

 

[Breadfan]

Not making it easy for us are they?
Patel gone. 4/1 off 3 overs

 

[mickyhoss]

7/2, batting like cunts

 

[buz_not_buzz]

It would really help if they stopped slashing at wide balls... and if they are going to do it at least move their feet a little more. Gave plenty of slip catching practice in the first innings too.

 

[Breadfan]

Not sure if Budinger is really opening material.

 

[mickyhoss]

Skipper has steered the ship through stormy waters

 

[Breadfan]

Gonna miss Ackers next season

 

[Bowdenfox]

7/2, batting like cunts

Richie Benaud couldn't have described it any more succinctly

 

[mickyhoss]

Thank you, Jim, an absolute piece of piss

 

[DagenhamFox]

We needed this kind of partnership in the first innings to secure good batting points. Still a win is a win on what was clearly a tricky pitch. Onwards and upwards.

 

[Breadfan]

So County are 3rd with a game in hand. BCC Yorkshire bottom are bottom. Don't hear many pundits questioning their place as a first class c(o)unty

 

[JohnMitten]

Well done to The County.
It just goes to show where County Championship Cricket is, Yorkshire are well the worst County going on league position, yet they have players such as Root, Bairstow, Malan, Bess, Rashid, Lyth and Brook on their staff.

 

[Brusselsfox]

To be fair to Yorkshire (not sure why I should) …. they have been docked 48 points for being a bunch of arrogant racist bastards.

 

[Breadfan]

To be fair to Yorkshire (not sure why I should) …. they have been docked 48 points for being a bunch of arrogant racist bastards.

To be fair to The County even without the points deduction we would still be 28 points ahead of them.
Leicestershire La La La.

 

[DagenhamFox]

Win all three remaining games and we’ll finish second.

Lose one and I think we’ll end up third.
