This is the 3rd qualifying match of the Champions League in 2011 which will be contested by Leicestershire and Trinidad & Tobago. Trinidad & Tobago are 1 win away from securing a permanent spot in this tournament but Leicestershire need to win this to keep their dream alive of entering the main draw in the tournament. The Trinidad & Tobago spinners performed very well on the Hyderabad pitch so Leicestershire will have to get on top of the match right away.
How the Teams Stand
Leicestershire may play the role as the party poopers if they manage to win this match as their opponents are only 1 win away from securing a group stage position. When you look at Leicestershire’s squad you don’t see too many stars but they completely suprised England in the T20 competition out playing star teams. Matthew Hoggard is a former England fast bowler and he captain this team full of mysteries but he managed 14 wickets in the FriendsLife t20 competition. Harry Gurney is another surprise in this English county team as he took 23 wickets from the 14 matches he played but he missed out playing in the final. Andrew Mcdonald who also plays in he Delhi Daredevils and Victorian Bushrangers is a key player in this Leicestershire team who scored 584 runs in the English County competition and will be crucial to their chances.
