Not sure it makes much difference, he has a career bowling average of 42.16. We need Lakmal fit and playing bowling well really. I'd rather Reece stays down the order and Came got a chance opening if they made a change, but I don't think we are there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 We didn't play well but there was some shocking LBW decisions. Even my mate who is a Notts fan thought 4 of them were absolute shockers. We would probably have still lost but not been thrashed as it was all top order batsmen. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came scored 74 yesterday/today for the seconds, in a game where 21 wickets have fallen since it started yesterday and he's the only one player to go past 50. He's been made the captain for this season too. Hopefully he keeps playing well and is knocking on the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 A sign of what Mickey Arthur thinks or the bowling so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Squad for Leicetershire.... No Billy in the squad, no mention of why in the article. Reece or Came to open, I’d like Reece to stay at 7 after doing well there and see Came open. Lakmal in the squad, makes me think he will play, and I don't think they brought Brookes in not to play.

Can’t believe Arthur has managed to get Brookes, incredible talent and batsman 😉 jimbo jones and Comrade 86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Team news: Came and Brookes in, Godleman and Aitchison out. Still no Lakmal. Aitchison making way not a surprise really, he had one really good spell against Durham, other than that he’s been a bit all over the place with line and length. won the toss and elected to bowl - a lot of rain across the weekend in the forecast.

jimbo jones Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 First career 5 for… for Brookes, Conners has a wicket too. Leicestershire 87-8. Did not see this coming at 40 odd for no wicket. Zag zig, Carnero and Anon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 First first class 5 wicket haul for Brookes on debut. Excellent work. Given our batting, have we let Leicestershire post too many? rynny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Never got to see much of our innings, nice to see Came and Haider put on a century opening stand. Always sets the innings up, shame Came fell short of 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
