jimbo jones Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Victory. A match-winning 63 not out from Matt Lamb, how I wish we had more opportunity to see that this season. Hopefully his back problems are behind him, but I thought I saw a few suspicious stretches and winces during his innings. Maybe im just being paranoid… Grumpy Git 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I forgot we were playing and turned on at 80-4. Really enjoyable and tense watch. Lamb and Guest set the victory up well. Happy days. Look forward to Tuesday now. 😎 jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Squad for the last one day cup game against Somerset. Wagstaff in the squad, and for me should play. Maybe at 3 and move Wood down the order as its been a disaster for him there. Leave Dal out to rest his injured hand/finger. Win and we guarantee finishing about Somerset and Sussex, and can possibly level with Northants…who were hoping to qualify if they beat us yesterday and won their last game.

Looking forward to it tomorrow. My fifth time at the county ground this season and yet to see a win. To be fair I did spend a period of nine years without seeing them win once so I can take 5 games 😂 jimbo jones and Eddie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have beer though, which helps. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Somerset 333-5 330 is about right at Derby, but this batting lineup relies so much on Reece, Came and Haider, I’d be lying if I said I was confident we can chase this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 2-2 in the second over…. and Haider Ali comes out to bat for Derbyshire for the last time. He’s off to play for Pakistan in the Asian games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) Haider Ali has 2 ways of getting out. Playing across line and getting lbw, or hitting a 6 and then putting the next ball straight up in the air. Guest was unlucky, looked like he got one that kept low, the rest of the dismissals have been pretty poor cricket.

His very words were ‘that’s the worst decision I have ever seen’. You perhaps can give him the benefit of the doubt. The rest …. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 If those couple of early drops in the slips in their innings had of been held, it could have been a different story 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t really tell from the replay on the stream, but we’ve had a few shockers in this competition, which doesn’t help when you’re already struggling.

Looked a routine catch for Harry Came but he left it for Haider who then couldn’t get there 🤦♂️ 19 minutes ago, Jimbo Ram said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Good to see a couple of the middle order showing a bit of fight. 166-8, Watt just out for 16. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
