Glad to see they're giving Du Plooy the time to come out of his poor run, it's not like we are overrun with top batsmen waiting in the wings! Conners with a wicket first ball and had a edge drop short. I think it's Guest, but no commentary on the live stream at the moment so I'm not 100% It would probably help Du Plooy if the sun made an appearance, he's still not comfortable with the conditions when it's grey and horrible, and the ball moves about.

jimbo jones Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 Also, if you bring in Reece for Hughes, that does look a decent team. Carnero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 It is Brooke Guest behind the stumps, as someone finally takes a catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 Worcestershire to resume on 336-7. We didn't take full advantage of a very good start, hopefully we can skittle them out early this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 270 all out 2 short of the follow on target, so think that's 3rd game in a row we are following on ?♂️ Critchley left stranded on 81 batted very well, after being dropped early on.

rammieib Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 My money is on us not scoring the 39 runs needed to make them bat again. Is the cricket side of things at Derbyshire really as bad as the football side at Derby. I know finances are small and we did incredibly well to turn another profit last year but our play this year on the field has been atrocious. Our only chance of getting a result is when the weather is bad for more than a day! Then both overseas signings are a nightmare. Giving Melton a year so he can be naturalised next year is pointless if he isn’t any good. Signing a player who statistically is likely to get injured is a bad move as well. How much did we spend on return flights and one game with figures averaging 50? I hope the 20/20 gives us something at least. Got my tickets for the Notts game. I just want it to be competitive - I’m not expecting a win, just a competitive game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Ram Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I was hopeful we would be competitive in red ball cricket but other than Madsen and Critchley, the top order have been abysmal. Maybe 1 day cricket will be our bag this year.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently played a couple of “ODI’s” against Scotland for the Dutch. More like signing a solid county player, than an overseas, not very exciting.
