    Whoo hoo!! Can't wait for that. Styris can hit ten sixes for Leicestershire so long as we win the match.

    Sun is shining, good game in prospect. Off up there now. No chance of a let down like Friday night where I had the pleasure of watching the rain fall for three hours before they called it off. Mad this cricket lark, but brilliant when it comes off

    Finch and Styris will be worth the admission money on their own (hopefully!)

    Finch is a big hitter but needs to rotate the strike a little more quite a few dot balls last night.

    They both messed up with the bat - too many tentative pushes for singles or dot balls. Not seen Finch play like that before - maybe the bowling was too good for him. Styris as well didn't look comfortable and got himself out to a really soft catch behind, ballooning it up to Bairstow.

    Would have loved to see both of them get fifties but sometimes things don't go to plan. Finch made up for it with his catches though, especially the repeated double act with Adam Lyth on the boundary. That was worth the admission money alone!
