Looks like the umpires were conferring on the catch (or else the umpires' dressing room is in the opposite side to the players!)

Does anyone know what was going on there, 16 byes is a huge number to concede in an innings of 234? Was it just terrible keeping or was there more to it?

The Leicestershire keeper (Ned Eckersley) had a shocker according to the commentator. Missed numerous balls for byes and dropped Wells just after Wright was out.

Cheers Ned

Nope. Although I find the whole 'goatmouth' thing as funny as the next person, I don't see how anything we say on here can REALLY have any bearing on the ebb and flow of a cricket match a couple of hundred miles away.

Are you suggesting it is mere coincidence that we have two victories from the two match threads I have started (plus an England win at the Champions Trophy)?

I fail to see a causal link... sorry.

Dammit, I thought I was in with a shout of pushing Jofra Archer close for player of the season!

I think he's capable of doing that himself. He's quite a talent.. could be a proper all-rounder as well.

When you show me evidence I will believe.

I see our next CC game starts 2 weeks today and is a 'day-nighter' with games starting at 2 instead of 11. Interesting

Pink Balls please

 

[Petee]

Will it be whites for the first 2 sessions and then coloured clothing for the 3rd

I like the idea of slow over rates and rain interuptions taking us to post 10PM ends of play.

I havenet seen any of these games that have been played yet, can only make afternoon/night one as I am working away but hoping its dry and I cacan see day one.

You wouldn't want to be batting in the night session - we invariably get dew even in the height of summer, so the pitch will get moist quickly once the sun sets.

Totally - that will be a new one to fathom out.
