48-0 against Notts at Trent Bridge.

What's the odds on a draw?

 

[Jeff]

Leics 100-0.

299 all out. Let it slip a bit after being 124-0.

Walker with two wickets. Masters and Henderson have kept it tight. Our two overseas players... don't ask.

Cleary
Willougby
Griffith
Drakes


Singh??

Could be a bit early to judge

 

[CM]

He did only fly in a few days ago so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now!

I'm surprised Maunders hasn't been given a bowl, very underrated bowler.

worst total in the county games today i believe

Langeveldt 0-97 on his debut in the current match - shall we add him to the list of ineffective overseas bowlers we have signed!! We should be expecting these guys to pick up at least 3 wickets in every innings, but poor old Broady has to shoulder all the burden.

Good to see Allenby get 5 wickets though - potentially an allrounder?

allenby got 0 in the first innings so i wouldnt say he's having a great allround game at the moment.

But he made a 77 in the last game and a 40 odd and 3 wickets in the one-dayer.

fair enough, gloucester finished on 146/2 today

 

[flashyfox]

2 players down really. Henderson gone home to visit his seriuosly ill mother and Masters has a groin injury. 9 men we've only got 9 men!!

375 to win after some contrived bowling. I'll take a draw given the circumstances.

 

[CM]

Was it actually contrived bowling or did they just take the game to us?

we're currently 209/7 (effectively 8 down) with Masters and Allenby at the crease. I think we need to hold on for another 20 minutes to hold onto a draw.

 

[CM]

Oh I see Robinson was bowling, kind of indicates that declaration bowling was in affect.

Respectable draw in the end all things considering.
