Leicestershire end day two with upper hand

With 18 overs lost during the day, Leicestershire just remain with the upper hand in this fixture.

Leicestershire finishing their innings on 351 made early breakthroughs into the Yorkshire batting line up. It was Vince Wells that finished with the best figures for the day but it was the bowling of Jimmy Ormond that left the biggest impression.

Gavin Hamilton played sensibly for his 58 not out and was very patient in waiting for the rare bad balls bowled by this well disciplined and varied Leicestershire attack. Hamilton was joined by the acting Yorkshire Captain, Darren Lehmann, was the score was 123 and together they have put on 71 for the sixth wicket. Lehmann had one lucky escape when he was dropped at square leg off the bowling of Wells. His score at that time was 41.

Leicestershire must now break this partnership quickly to give themselves every opportunity to win this game. Yorkshire finishing the day on 194-5 still 157 runs behind.
