County Championship 2024

[captaincolly]

I read that he scored 10 hundreds in 15 years for Middlesex and has 3 already this year.

Its the fact he took each one on too...

205*, 185* and 180* ..... once he sees out 20 balls, he stays for the rest of the day.

That's impressive. Daddy hundreds! Graham Gooch would approve.

what on earth is going on at Hove?

Leics were sliding to a heavy defeat on 175-7, miles and miles away from their target. 26 overs later they are on 411-7 with Kimber on 214 (20 fours and 18 sixes) off about 100 balls

Leics now only require 50 runs to win, with three wickets in hand

astonishing

[Durhamfootman]

now Robbo has nipped Cox out, so Leics have 2 wickets to get home.

Kimber will be hoping that Mike and Hull can hang around

Game on!

Down to 8 now but Kimber is still there....

39 need, 2 to go

[sussexpob]

10 men on the boundary, and he keeps smashing it into the stands

Robbo just scrapped his bail with one.... guessing he drunk his luck virus today.

2nd most sixes hit ever.... 3 away from equalling the record.

[Durhamfootman]

what's the record for sixes in a CC match? Did Stokes nail it 2 years ago against Worcs? I have a feeling that might have been 16. Kimber has 20 at this moment in time

edit... bugger, you've just added it

Comms said he has 23, but maybe have been wrong....

He's beaten the FC record in the UK....

[Durhamfootman]

FHP isn't bowling. Is he injured?

[sussexpob]

9 down, horrid shot from Ben Mike, no idea what he is doing. Just hold up an end, but instead he just chipped it to mid-off trying to Kimber it.....

[Durhamfootman]

I guess it has to be Robbo and McAndrew who have to see this out. They are the top guns and it has to be down to them to get the job done

they've lifted 2 of the 3

[Durhamfootman]

according to the guiness book of records, it was Stokes in '22 and his record was 17 sixes, so Kimber has smashed that to bits

[Durhamfootman]

ouch there's another one.

maybe he fancies doing it in this over

do or die

[sussexpob]

FHP isn't bowling. Is he injured?

Not been mentioned. He bowled one over that Kimber put in the stand 4 times, and then he disappeared. Surprised he hasnt had another over ...

Kimber playing some just unreal shots.... like the gunfight at OK Corral this....

I really wouldn't be that bothered if he wins Leicestershire this.... what an effort.

[Durhamfootman]

20 to win

one of these next two balls will have to be a single

and is..... one ball for Hull

[sussexpob]

Not taking the singles either...its the stands or nothing....
