Still time for another one before lunch?

Hopefully, if you had offered me 4 down by lunch, I would of ripped your arm off.

Bates has now conceded 23 byes in the game

Either the pitch is really that bad, in terms of keeping low or Wheater takes the gloves back next week.

5 down, yes Coles, join the party.

[SaintPowelly]

SIX, 2nd in the over for Coles

took the confidence from his batting.

[SaintPowelly]

and theres a slightly early lunch.

get Abbott on after lunch and finish it off.

The perfect morning session.

The perfect morning session.

Could of had it finished by now, if we didn't bat on

But seriously, hope we can win by tea,

7 down, Coles has 3 in 6 balls ( spread across 2 overs and either side of lunch )

Good to see my FL player Coles has finally come alive but one has to sympathize with Leicestershire having to bat 4th on a wicket that is so in favour of bowlers.

Praying Abbott is not inured

Praying Abbott is not inured

From what they said on commentary he isn't "injured" has a slight bruised heel, he can bowl if needed, but at this point there is no point in forcing him to bowl for the sake of it.

8 down, 2nd for Briggs.

79-9, briggs has 3-4

Yes the pitch is wearing on the last day like most pitches do and cracks have appeared here and there, but we did make the highest innings total of the match batting third on the wicket so decent bowling has to be taken into consideration aswell.

Really pleased for him, will there be a place in the side for him going forward with Dawson out, especially as his batting is solid these days.
