Nottinghamshire v Derbyshire day 4

We ran out of steam on day four here, losing the unbeaten record at the same time.

Such is life. A ten wicket win doesn't reflect that the game was fairly close for large parts. It was a good, result wicket and the irony is that both Sura Lakmal and Anuj Dal would have enjoyed bowling on it. 

As I wrote before, we battled and there was great pride in seeing eight Nottinghamshire wickets fall to our own lads. 

Now it is time to regroup and prepare for the start of the T20.

I can't wait!

  1. Any truth in the rumour Lakmal is done for the season? Also heard Daniel Sams is arriving on a short term deal, presumably as a white ball replacement?

    1. Don't know about Lakmal, but an elbow injury isn't ideal with the T20 fast approaching. It MIGHT need surgery and they are nursing him to prevent that.

      Sams is a decent player, but signed for Essex back in March.

    2. Update.. Looks pretty bad for Lakmal and a replacement is likely to be needed...
