Worcs v Leics FPT

[flashyfox]

What a potent attack we're going to have tomorrow! O'brien, Harris, Malik and Cliff all out injured. Think i heard correctly on radio Leicester that O'brien will be out for the next 3 championship games , he's got a cracked rib i believe.

On the plus side Allenby is back in the squad and Henderson will probably play because O'brien is out.

Oh dear, no bowlers and no batsman capable of hitting the ball off the square.

I might have to stand in.

All we needed was injuries this year....nightmare. At least Wyatt gets a run, he seems to have done pretty well so far.

When is Malik expected to be back?

Glad that Allenby is back for Twenty20

Since Malik got his new contract he has practically been injured ever since.

Returned to pre season injured, then pulled a hamstring & now his groin. Makes you wonder what he has been doing over the winter!

When he does come back he will be so rusty it is going to take him a month to get back up to standard.

Great knock from Taylor again. Run out for 101

Leics 282-3 from 50 overs.

Taylor 101
Dippenaar 62*

Decent total to defend, although can we rely on our bowling attack.

 

[Jimmy Lad]

Wors gone from 5-1 from 2 overs to 44-1 from 8.

Wyatt & Gurney opening. V.inexperienced. Could do with another wicket asap to put them in check.

 

[Lako42]

May have a battling chance in this one.

I have just purchased a new bat for this season, having only realised after two games that my current blade was a bit smallere than needed :icon_redf

65-1

Who do you play for Mr Lako sir. I played first game of the season in our 1st team but then got injured so when my knee's better it looks like i'll be hopping back to the scooby doo's.

 

[Jeff]

82-2, Davies out for 62 in the 14th over. Hopefully the wicket will slow them down.

Need to bowl them out to win I reckon.
