Derbyshire v Worcestershire preview

I'd guess that our side is likely to be unchanged tomorrow for the visit of Worcestershire in the T20.

Having done well so far, what we don't want to do is take our foot off the gas against supposedly lesser lights. The visitors have some dangerous players in Moeen Ali, Shakib al-Hasan, Vikram Solanki and Alex Kervezee.

Then again, our top four are looking good in this competition and fans of a certain age will be looking at Messrs Durston, Guptill, Hughes and Madsen with the same thoughts we had of Barnett, Bowler, Morris and Adams a few years back. Early days yet to make such comparisons perhaps, but the way that four play their shots is a nice throwback. I just hope we see the current four together in club colours longer than the original variety...

My biggest problem tomorrow is having to work till 7. I'll not get in until nearly 8.30pm at the earliest, so will miss the first innings. Hopefully its good news when I make it home.

If we keep the intensity and commitment going, it will be. Nothing less will do though.

  2. Yes we must win this one. Don,t want to put a dampener on ythings but the weather for friday looks awful. Pity it aint against Notts. We should have been awarded the points for the last match. How can you get off with a £600 fine for fielding an ineligable player?.It not like he didn,t have any effect on the game!. If we had done it they would have thrown the book at us. Double standardsas usual for the big boys.
