What an amazing day's cricket - two tied semi finals and the one over drama that brings to decide the finalists....

...followed by an amazing final that the foxes turned on its head with an amazing bowling/fielding performance.

None more so that Nico (Paul Nixon) in his farewell game, with an amazing catch to dismiss dangerman Pollard!

Well done the Foxes :smt023 - bring on the Champions League !!

What a fantastic game, I turned it on as Nico took his catch.. It seemed like we wanted it more, the Somerset bench was sooooo subdued.

What a fantastic fairytale end for a legend. Good on you Nico.
cheers

Sat all day watching this, apart from a small diversion to watch the England/Ireland game.

Well done all at Leics Foxes (and it is Leicestershire, not Leicester, Sky Sports commentators, and it is NOT IN THE NORTH!!!) - excellent play throughout the day, and young Cobb, what a day he had!

and thanks to Paul Nixon for everything he has done for county for so long. I gather he's accepted a coaching role - brilliant.
