meaker or curran toss of a coin?

One of the more telling stats in the Leics second innings.  After Hill was quickly dismissed with the first new ball, every other batsman, all the way down the order, has lasted for over 70 balls.

son of boris finishes with 6

216 to win off 24 overs

Just too late - by five or six overs - for Surrey to have any realistic chance.  Tho' just conceivably Surrey might open with Le Roi and Pieterson or Davies.  I guess KP might enjoy hitting another unbeaten century off 60 balls.

24

11 off the first over

Thanks, JimBob.

Expect a lot of wideish deliveries and boundary fielders. It's possible but very difficult ....

monster six by Le Roi

plenty of ones on offer

48 off 4 overs

156 needed off 114

naik goes for 21 off his first over

128 off 102 balls

50 for Le Roi

100 up in the 8th

107 off 96 balls

less than a hundred

Looking good but a couple of wickets and the run rate will noticeably fall.

Per Churchy - Pietersen can't bat until number 7 as he was off the field today.

119 - 0 off 9 overs

50 for davies

Fun match. Can't see there being many volunteers to bowl other than McKay, who is going at about 9 an over, otherwise 2 overs @ 16, 1 @ 20 and 1 @ 21. It's like my normal bowling figures...

Only 14 off next over.

wayne rooney 2 overs for 34

83 off 84 balls

i'm starting to believe

Close finishes in all four Div 2 matches....

71 off 78 balls

Le Roi goes to taylor's first ball

150 up

Despite that wicket another 13 off the over...

58 off 72 balls

Couple more boundaries for Davies. Target now below. 50
