Looking ahead to Thursday, I think this will be the team, assuming everyone's available... Godleman Masood Guest Du Plooy Madsen Reece Dal Thomson Conners Lakmal Melton Maybe Potts instead of Melton... In a very un-Derbyshire manner, that looks a quite tasty line-up.

I can't remember the last time I looked at a Derbyshire line up and felt so optimistic about a season. Hopefully I'm still optimistic Thursday lunchtime ?

jimbo jones Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Ian Bell is coming in as “batting consultant” for 2 months. Interesting move, obviously Arthur recognises what the main problem has been. Consistency from the batsmen. Wonder if he can teach them all to do that cover drive ?? RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Arthur was such a good appointment. The respect he has in the game is so evident you can already feel the change in the club. I really believe (in time) he can make us a team that has to be taken seriously again, for the first time in a long time? angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have been happy if England had appointed Mickey Arthur before Derbyshire did. jimbo jones, angieram and JoetheRam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Well that answers who the 11th player will be ? If Conners is fit to play that’s a nice bowling attack. rynny, Jimbo Ram and Hans Datdo-Dishes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 13 man squad for tomorrow. I’d expect Came and Potts to miss out, though I do hope we see plenty of both over the course of the season across the 3 formats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rammieib Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Thought the game may have started at half ten, so just logged in (10.35) to see how many wickets we had lost - old habits die hard. rynny and jimbo jones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, my reaction was “Ryan Sidebottom? Nah can't be, he’d be in his mid 40’s by now” ? He has a UK passport courtesy of his English mother who was born in Devon. rynny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
