jimbo jones 2,974 Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 217-6 Critchley gets Wessels in the 60s, with a beauty....looked like the googly, definitely spun the other way. What a player he's turning into. Big breakthrough with the new ball a couple of overs away, not much was happening with the old ball. cstand and Anon 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The one thing Critchley has been crying out for is a decent googly. His stock leg-break is a ripper and he has a decent hurry-up ball (maybe a top-spinner), but I've never really seen much evidence of a wrong un. He's been a 'star in the making' for a couple of years now - perhaps this is the year we can drop 'in the making'. sage, cstand and jimbo jones 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

His reaction suggested, it was something he’d been trying and was delighted to pull off. Absolutely a difference maker if he can bowl it with some regularity. Link to post Share on other sites
sage 15,786 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Derbyshire doing their usual 'get in a great position then throw it away with sloppy bowling and fielding'. We just can't put together enough good sessions. Â Link to post Share on other sites
sage 15,786 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Finally...put Critchley on and gets a wicket in his first over. Should have been on from the start. Tail enders can't pick leggies. Â cstand and jimbo jones 2 Link to post Share on other sites
jimbo jones 2,974 Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Finally! Been a bit sloppy, too many short balls, get Critchley on and he gets a wicket. Link to post Share on other sites

Lead currently 213 He needs to calm down or we could lose him, though he will have to average 100 with the bat and 10 with the ball to get in the England team.

jimbo jones 2,974 Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Half century for Madsen. He was the only one of the top 5 who hadn’t got any real runs, so good to see him looking his usual self at the crease, making the game look easy. Carnero 1 Link to post Share on other sites
sage 15,786 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Madsen out for 66. Could see it coming as the runs had slowed down for a few overs. 207 for 3. (292 ahead) Critchley on 73 not out. 19 overs remaining. Not sure we will declare tonight now.  Link to post Share on other sites

Eddie 3,277 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Critchley's having an amazing start to the season. 3 half centuries and a ton in 4 digs, and 7 wickets @ 12 apiece with hopefully a good stint with the ball to come tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
jimbo jones 2,974 Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 Derbyshire have come out to continue batting, not sure it's really needed. Not sure how many they plan to get before declaring. A quick 5 over dash maybe. Link to post Share on other sites
