Comrade 86 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 How long is Mickey Arthur's contract? Even with injuries to key players the side seems to be unrecognisable from previous seasons. Need to hang onto him if we can. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering about Lakmal as he looked pretty handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Lakmal out for the rest of the season it will be Masood and Kerr playing. Don’t think Melton will get a look in as an overseas, which is why he’s desperate to get his citizenship...or whatever it is he needs to not be classed as an overseas player.

Cheers Jimbo - are they contracted a season at a time? Just wondering whether we might see Lakmal play again. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s fairly unusual for overseas to sign for more than one season at a time, but as he’s retired from international cricket he doesn’t have any other commitments. Masood signed for just this season and Kerr until September. He will leave early for the start of the Australian season. Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) After being made to look so poor by Derbyshire yesterday, Leicestershire comfortably beat Yorkshire today. We play Yorkshire next in a run of 3 games next week, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday against the the supposed big 3 of Notts, York’s, Lancs...

I think the run out by Madsen was crucial and came at just the right time. Up until then they were going ok and up with the rate…… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We put the pressure on with good bowling and fielding. They badly needed that win. Ackerman finally getting some runs will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Squad for tomorrow... Alex Thomson in the squad for the first time in place of Mikey Cohen. Quite surprised he’s not been involved already, but off spin and an powerful batter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 A game of cricket that lasts 8 overs is absolute nonsense to be honest...still hope we win. Dont understand why you still send Reece out to open, most out of form batsmen in the team, when you’ve only got 8 overs to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
