The rain came after Essex had been bowled out for 133. They were cruising at 66-1, which rapidly became 68-5 with the advent of Matt Stewart and Rubaiyat Abrar. Each took two wickets and the ever-impressive pair finished with 4-18 and 2-27 respectively. Captain Joe Hawkins didn't come on to bowl until the thirtieth over, but finished with 1-8 in the six overs he bowled.
I understand that the trophy is shared, but Derbyshire will at least claim a moral victory after an impressive bowling and fielding performance.
Well done lads!
