Leicestershire under 17s have made the one-day B Division Final against Hertfordshire following an emphatic 91-run victory against Cambridgeshire at Histon last weekend.
The showpiece game will be played at Kibworth CC on Sunday (11am start) as a good all-round team performance saw off Cambs.
Opening batsman Ramandeep Ghuman top-scored with 82, while there were fireworks from Tom Wells (54* from 34 balls) and a good innings from Shiv Thakor (42 from 38) to ensure Leics got up to 287-9 in a game reduced to 44 overs.
There were useful contributions throughout the order, with Shyam Patel (26) putting on 45 with Ghuman for the first wicket inside nine overs and James Kirkham (21), George Crossley (19), Alex Martin (15) and Tom Richardson (14) all scoring at a good rate.
Paceman Aiden Morris then shone with the ball in taking 3-36 as he and Wells set the tone with the new ball with fiery spells.
An early run out by Ben Collins shook the Cambridgeshire side and they were only 83-3 at the halfway stage after the off-spinner also took 2-24 in a fine nine over spell which included dismissing the other opener and the number three batsman.
Cambs never recovered and finished on 196 all out after 39 overs, with slow left armer Rajiv Purohit (2-58) and medium pacer Martin (1-25) also in the wickets.
The lads would really appreciate your support on Sunday, so please get down to Kibworth CC and watch them if you can.
