Blast from the past

July 2008 and the Foxes were well and truly 'carted.' All-rounder Neil Carter, years ahead of his time as a white-ball batter, opened the batting and laid into the hosts for 78 fro**'**Bowl straight' is always a good strategy in one-day cricket and the Bears did that magnificently to brush Notts aside by 61 runs in the John Player League in 1983. After the Bears totalled 200 in 40 overs (Andy Lloyd 57, Gordon Lord 40), they bowled out the visitors for 139, hitting the stumps seven times.

Paul Smith bowled numbers one, two and three (Basharat Hassan, Tim Robinson and Clive Rice) on his way to four for 23 before Chris Old rearranged the furniture of Bruce French, Andy Pick and Kevin Cooper on his way to four for 14.

Who's hot?

Michael Burgess. Keeping wicket as well as ever and averaging 70 with the bat in this season's Royal London Cup.

Look out for

Liam Patterson-White. Highly-rated all-rounder who bagged a five-for against Durham at Grantham on Sunday.

On the brink

Krunal Pandya. Needs 2 wickets for 100 in List A matches.
