Eddie Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Regarding 'average' players... Derbyshire as a county have been, for the last 20 years with a couple of exceptions, one of the 3 weakest counties in the championship as far as results are concerned, have the smallest average attendance and the smallest membership. I'll settle for 'average' at the moment any day of the week. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we will get in a spinner/allrounder for the 20/20?? jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Glowing endorsement from Mickey so perhaps he thinks Thomson can be the spinner. Looked steady enough and can hold a bat. Hopefully Arthur can coach the players up a bit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southport is near the sea but not quite over it ? Hans is right, Dustin Melton is the South African overseas player, unlike the South African not overseas players Du Plooy and Cohen.

Top 6 looks strong on paper if they all perform as they're capable... Came, Wood & Hughes are decent backup and likely to come into play for the 1 day stuff. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big questions are can everyone’s favourite guy Anuj Dal keep his end of season form with the bat up and can Thomson carry a full time spinners role. Then Scrimshaw (really tall) and Cohen (left arm slingy) give a couple of different options with the ball. Looks a decent squad on paper.

Maybe we can even challenge for promotion for a change given it's only an 8 team division with 2 going up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Notts will be favourites, with them disregarding the last 2 years and going back to what the divisions would have been in 2020, they look a lot stronger than the rest. Durham should be up there too and probably Middlesex, they won’t like slumming it in the second division 2 ? I have enough pre season optimism to hope we can at least compete near the top.

It's Mark Watt for the T20’s, 25 year old left arm slow. Plays for Scotland, played a few games for us back in 2019. Remember him being decent and he comes back with more experience. Adds depth to the squad. Hans Datdo-Dishes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took a fourfer against Yorkshire at Queen's Park a few years ago in the slog de bowling cup (4-19, 2019) and is renowned for being miserly. He was also highly influential when Scotland defeated England in an ODI a few years ago. Remember those heady days when there was one form of the game that England were pretty decent at? jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
