Shine names squad to face Foxes.
Richard Walsh - 26 August 2001

Somerset Coach Kevin Shine has named the same squad that played against Surrey Lions on Tuesday night to face Leicestershire Tigers at Grace Road tomorrow in the Norwich Union National League.

When the two sides met at Taunton a couple of weeks ago Somerset Sabres put an end to the Tigers unbeaten run when they won by a single run, after Shahid Alfridi and then Neil Burns looked set to win the match for the visitors.

Since that match the Sabres have won two of their three matches in the white ball game, but go to Grace Road knowing that they are in for a tough game.

Speaking after the close of play on the last day of the match against Surrey Kevin Shine told me,"We still have to win three out of the four games that we still haver to play to stay in the First Division. Yorkshire look like winning today, so we need to be chasing Gloucestershire , Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire, who areall above us at the moment."
