Minor Counties v Leicestershire 2nd X1 - Milton Keynes, 12th July Gordon Child - 12 July 2002
Leicestershire won the toss and batted first on a wicket that gave the spinners some assistance. Disciplined bowling restricted Leicestershire to 212-7 in their 50 overs with Dawkins, 3-42 gaining the most reward for his 10 overs of tidy leg-spin. The third–wicket stand of 81 between Wright (72) and Brandy (44) provided the backbone of the visitors' innings. Minor Counties collapsed to 67-7 off 17 overs before a stand of 89 between Hall(66) and Stephens (41) raised hopes of victory. The ninth wicket fell at 175 with 38 runs needed off the last 4 overs. Stephens was bowled by Grove for a brave 41 giving Leicestershire victory by 36 runs. © MCCA
