Leicestershire again setting the world alight at 69-5 at lunch.
After last weeks humiliation of being thrashed by Leeds/Bradford Uni, things continue to go downhill.
Call me a pessimist but I seriously can't see them winning a 4 day game all season.
Looked at the batting average of the top 6 batsmen and the last dozen or so innings (for Leics), where applicable, showed the following averages:
Thornley 11.06 (including 6 ducks in 16 innings)
O'Brien 24.00
Eckersley 26.78
Sarwan 24.00
Cobb 9.33
Boyce 35.07
Will never win anything with those figures (with probably Boyce excluded). And seriously, what is the point of Josh Cobb? They have made him 1 day captain and 4 day vice captain. Exactly what has he done to deserve these positions?!!
