36.5 6 Leonard to Chavhanga
That full toss has gone soaring high, high, high in the air and I don't think that it's coming back! That's gone into orbit!

Hehe .............. too late

38.6 W Leonard to Ray
Leonard strikes! Huge bounce outside off, Ray tries to square cut off the back foot and sends a huge nick instead through to Henry who pouches a straightforward catch at hip height.
38.5 . Leonard to Ray
Short ball, pitched outside leg stump and moves away outside off stump, Ray lets it go.
38.4 . Leonard to Ray
Forward, played out to mid off, Mccoist diving to stop the ball, great fielding.
38.3 . Leonard to Ray
Shortish ball, a bit wide outside off stump, comfortably raises the arms up high to leave alone to Henry. Expected a wide there, but not given. Ray can't believe it!
38.2 W Leonard to Quintus
Nipped back in from the off stump and was hitting leg stump and the umpire brings up the dreaded finger.
38.1 W Leonard to Chavhanga
Short one down leg from Leonard, there's a slight noise and the umpire ups his finger. The noise sounded woody, Chavhanga is distraught and replays suggest he is right to be. Nothing going on but thigh pad. Good tumbling catch from Henry to be fair though.

Leonard my Hero :happy

0.3 W Rahim to Pollock
And that's Pollock gone! Fine ball from Rahim, the ball nibbling back off the seam and finding the gap between bat and pad.

Smashing start for me with the bat.

1-1

Sean made a good score and I lost two early wickets. Now it is my two best batsmen at the crease and they need to recover this for me:

End of Over 9: 35-2, runrate=3.89, reqrunrate=6.27 (291-4)

Mccormick 5-0-16-1
