Rupesh Amin, jeez they must be desperate for spinners

Odd, since Grace Road is a classic seamers pitch. Then again, looking at the weather forecast it's going to be boiling over the next four days and I think wickets will be at a premium. What you need is say, someone who can get through a lot of overs, who is motivated to take wickets by being paid per wicket taken and who can take advantage of bone hard, cracked, dry wickets.

Amin has been playing for a local side in my area and not exactly setting the world alight therer, cant see him getting many scalps at county level although he's bound to buy a few with those loopy spinners

If he was on a pay as u take wickets deal, Leics must be laughing at moment

 

[CHAPPERS]

If the pitch is flat it looks as if we will be relying on Mushy and some poor batting for Leicestershire to win this one.
Any reason why Davis is left out, he's been taking a few wickets recently?

 

[Simster]

Piss. It's 60/1 now.

However, Mushy the wizard has just been introduced into the attack.

 

[Beeneys gloves]

and he makes it 60/2 snaring Darren Maddy

 

[Simster]

Bowlin' Mushy. Another £250 well spent!

 

[Beeneys gloves]

Anyone else notice how Ed Smith from Kent is having an amazing season?

 

[Beeneys gloves]

Mushy strikes again, Stevens stumped by Ambrose 109-3

124/4, Ward out for 4!

Again, it's "bowlin Mushy"

 

[Beeneys gloves]

Mushy strikes twice after lunch getting rid of Ward and Nixon, he must be desperate to get to that 100 wickets

 

[CHAPPERS]

Bowling Mushyyyyyy

 

[Simster]

That's 4 for Mushy already. He should be the difference in this match as it's feckin baking outside. Kirtley lasted only 9 overs, and Lewry only 5. When Leics have to bowl (in about an hour I reckon ) they'll have no quality spin bowler.

Rashid Latif: "Bowling Bowling Mushy"

 

[Simster]

He's done it again. 154/6 and 5 for the king of spin

 

[Juan Albion]

154-6 5 for Mushy

 

[CHAPPERS]

Bowling Bowling Mushy.

Anything ubder 200 will be fantastic for us, we could build a big innings with some shrewd batting.
