White Prepared For Difficult Day Four

20 Apr 2016 | Cricket
Leicestershire allrounder Wayne White is prepared for a challenge on Day Four of this Specsavers County Championship clash, as the visitors seek victory.

White hit 58 as the visitors added valuable lower-order runs on Day Three and get a useful lead of 79 after the first innings.

He said: "It was a tough first half-hour this morning, but the bottom order faced a lot of balls and put a lot of overs on their legs, which showed when Glamorgan started to bat."

Ben Raine took 3 wickets as Leicestershire reduced Glamorgan to 29/3 and then 133/8 in their second innings.

White added: "It's always important to take early wickets, we wanted to keep them behind the 79 run deficit and it was good to make things happen."

But an unbroken stand of 39 put the hosts in with a shout and White admitted Leicestershire would have to work hard to claim victory today.

He added: "The energy in the field and the amount of chances we created was great but we've got a lot of hard work to do tomorrow, we've got two wickets to take and batting last on a Day Four pitch isn't going to be easy."

Glamorgan's second innings resume at 11am this morning, with Graham Wagg and Michael Hogan both unbeaten on 19. You can watch the action, with commentary, on Glamorgan Live.
