Derbyshire extended their first innings to 286, with Joe Hall making 40 and Jack Morley 38, this after a delayed start because of overnight rain.
Then it was the turn of the Derbyshire seamers to enjoy conditions, with both Nick Potts and Matt Stewart taking two wickets. Stewart took the prize wicket of Archie Vaughan, courtesy of a stunning catch by Joe Hall behind the stumps, while Amrit Basra chipped in with another to leave the hosts 144-5 at the close.

Great to see Matty Stewart back in the wickets. He is certainly putting a case forward to play in the remaining games of the county championship this season. If not then we should at least sign him to the staff for next year. Looks a great talent. Also enjoyed watching Amrit Basra’s highlights, shame to see him throw it away after making a rapid 39 but would be nice to see him play in one of the 3 games left of the season.
ReplyDeletePotts looks like he bowled tight too which is great. I’d like to think he’s developing and learning and will become a fine bowler in the future.
