Interesting selection decision to give Dixey a chance to earn a contract. Particularly after New played his most important innings of the summer against Kent. But overall he hasn't scored the runs and Dixey has a big chance here.
Surely, it's only a matter of time before JT is signed up by someone else.
Playing with our present bunch can't be all that inspiring for him.
Is he a Leicestershire lad?
He's from a village just outside Melton. As are Stuart Broad and Luke Wright. Cricketing hotbed :icon_bigg
Leics declared on 309-7, 83 runs behind.
Taylor made 127 not out.
Some of the cricketers who attended Oakham School in the past ten or so years are exceptional.
Shhhhhhhh, it's nothing to do with Oakham School. It's all about Melton :icon_bigg
