@TheFox_LCCC Totally correct, I can’t believe it’s even a conversation. The game was all but done after the opening three overs of throw downs we gave them.
@TheFox_LCCC@rowleydan That’s very much the question I would also pose. When Maharaj dropped out I said that could easily be the difference between staying up and going down.
Santner is out of the upcoming Test series but NZ have called up an uncapped spinner 👀
@SWallis23827@leicsccc Maybe because it was a bit green on top and the last couple of games we’ve put big scores on the board batting second. I agree though it would be interesting to know as I thought it was a bananas decision at the time.
@SamMartinFPL Great opportunity for him, wish him all the best. As a club, we have given him enormous support in every aspect of his development. I really hope this counts for something when he is out of contract next autumn, as the vultures are already circling.
@leicsccc Those 4 days epitomised what got us promoted. Especially loved the resilience; heads could easily have dropped after day one but we showed so much character and spirit. Brilliant performance 👏
@SamMartinFPL@George290994 Be interesting to see if/when Ajaz is available too. I can’t remember the last time an overseas wasn’t an automatic pick every game - testament to the strength of the squad Claude has assembled.
@rowleydan@TheCricketerMag@GeorgeDobell1 Correct. EW seems to suggest that a redevelopment would be on the table if we were selling out every game. Surely it is required whether the stadium is full or empty for those 60 days per year when there is cricket, to maximise revenue for the other 300 when there isn’t.
@TheFox_LCCC@rowleydan Ajaz is a v good replacement. I just feel Maharaj could have won us a couple of games almost single-handedly.
I’m interested to see how the top order goes against Div 1 attacks.
@TheFox_LCCC@rowleydan Losing Maharaj is a hammer blow I feel.
Alex Green is an incredible prospect, think we have to be careful with expectations though.
The fact we are even playing Div 1 is something to be very proud of. If we can stay up, I’ll certainly take it!
@SeanMJarvis@GeorgeDobell1 They always will do when you have a ready made stooge waiting to trouser a bucket load of cash to attribute 7 dropped catches in one day at the GABBA to Leicestershire’s continued existence as a first class county.
