'Great to get one over Notts' - Foxes' Trevaskis
Leicestershire all-rounder Liam Trevaskis says it was "great to get one over" Nottinghamshire after Wednesday's comprehensive 124-run One-Day Cup victory over their local 26-year-old spinner claimed his first five-wicket haul in white-ball cricket as Notts were dismissed for 209 with 12 overs of their innings still remaining at Kibworth."I can feel the rivalry build as I've got to play against them - they want to beat us, we want to beat them [so] it was great to get one over them," Trevaskis told BBC Radio Leicestershire."I've had a couple of four-fers over the last couple of years so I'm happy to get that one ticked off."The last couple of weeks haven't gone as well as I'd have liked, but credit goes to our lads for putting a good score on the board. With runs on the board it's always a lot easier as a spinner."Describing the Kibworth pitch as producing "tennis ball bounce", left-arm off-spinner Trevaskis also praised team-mate and former Notts batsman Sol Budinger, who smashed 102 off 80 balls as the Foxes posted an imposing 333-8."It's amazing, he keeps scoring runs, the ground really suits him well," Trevaskis said of the Foxes opener."It's great to see him getting runs and he puts bums on seats. He's an entertaining batter to watch and I'm very chuffed for him."Leicestershire currently sit third in the Group A standings after two wins and a defeat from their opening three continue their One-Day Cup campaign with a trip to Hampshire on Friday [11:00 BST].
