AXA Equity and Law League GRACE ROAD: Leics v Surrey
Leicester look set for a Lord's probe after their Sunday League
clash with Surrey was abandoned after just 11 overs for a
dangerous pitch.
Leics were 26 1 when umpires Jack Bond and Nigel Briers called
off the match after consultation with the captains.
Martin Bicknell and Joey Benjamin both made the ball life
alarmingly from just short of a length. TCCB pitch inspector
Harry Brind is likely to investigate.

wicket victory.
