Rubbing shoulders with the greats of the game, and above the likes of Brian Lara, Alistair Cook, Ricky Ponting and Rahul Dravid to name a few.

jimbo jones Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 (edited) Brooke Guest with his sixth century for Derbyshire. Only Bill Storer has more playing as wicketkeeper for Derbyshire. Would be nice if he's around long enough to break that record. Edited July 12, 2023 by jimbo jones Eddie, Carnero and Grumpy Git 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Git Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Derbyshire tail doing us proud. Less than 30 behind, 8 wkts down. Be nice to get another batting point and a small lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not often we get that from the tail 😄 407 all out, lead of 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Git Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Has Scrimshaw injured himself, as another bowler appears to have completed his NINE ball over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, 3 no balls in an over for height, and taken out of the attack. I only saw the 3rd one, which didn't look a no ball at all, and the fielders were convinced was edged behind. Safe to say du Plooy and co weren't happy Grumpy Git 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Sussex lead by 188 with 5 wickets left. How quickly can we take them and what score can we chase? Pitch still looks good, the Kookaburra ball doesn't do a lot when it gets old and there's a very short boundary on one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a reputation for generous declarations, though we really should be able to bowl them out from here. The extremely short boundary makes things interesting, attack it like Sussex did in their first innings and runs can come quickly....or we could collapse in a heap and lose 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Zak Chappell has been picked up by the Oval Invincibles for the hundred. Good news for Zak, I suppose it's good news for our recruitment, showing you can come here get game time and earn yourself those sort of opportunities. The trio of fast bowlers that were so good in the T20 all going to be missing for the one day cup 😕 angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like we can get relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
