Raine's primary weapon was swing and he could have harvested a greater gather so regularly did he beat the bat, now and then with conveyances that lifted clumsily. He left upon his ruinous course by uprooting Tom Westley and Jaik Mickleburgh in progressive overs after the pair had partaken in a moment wicket stand of 43 taking after the loss of Nick Browne, who was gotten in the slip cordon in Clint McKay's first over of the day.
Westley was caught lbw for 27 while Mickleburgh was bowled for 16 taking after resistance of a little more than an hour that spread over 40 conveyances. Raine later had Jesse Ryder well gotten on the profound fine leg limit by Ned Eckersley, the New Zealander making 38, the top-score of the house side's innings. Ryan ten Doeschate and James Foster were his different casualties as Essex, who gave a top notch presentation to 20 year-old moderate left-arm bowler Aron Nijjar, were left as yet looking for their first batting purpose of the season at Chelmsford in their third match on the ground.
Ravi Bopara's trusts of having an effect were immediately finished by McKay when a free shot gave wicketkeeper Lewis Hill a simple catch with only four hurries to his name.
Aside from Westley and Ryder, Graham Napier was the main other batsman to main 20. He struck five limits in his 29 preceding he was gotten at second slip to give Charlie Shreck his single achievement. That was a wicket that finished an organization of 54 with Ryder, the pair uniting with their side somewhere down in a bad position at 67 for 6. McKay completed with 2 for 42 while offspinner Jigar Naik asserted the last two wickets at an expense of nine keeps running in 8.3 overs.
On a day when 27 overs were lost to rain and awful light, Leicestershire's openers Matt Boyce and Angus Robson came to the nearby on 28 without misfortune from seven overs to finish a remunerating day in their journey to end a grouping of 37 Championship matches without a triumph.
"I haven't had numerous five-fors throughout my life, frankly, originating from a batting foundation," Raine said. "So its decent to get my initial one for Leicestershire and I can dare to dream that its the first of numerous. I'd move that pitch up and bring it with me all around I went in the event that I could. Toward the beginning of today, the steady shower kept that bit of life in it albeit toward the evening it showed signs of improvement to bat on."
Essex head mentor Paul Grayson said: "It was positively a decent hurl to win and we would have knocked down some pins first had we had the open door. Credit to Raine - he utilized the conditions well."
