Seconds set for win

There's good news from the Second XI tonight, where the side should have wrapped up victory over Worcestershire earlier today.

Yesterday, Derbyshire replied to the hosts 212 by making 331, with Dan Redfern returning to form with 82. Batting again, Worcestershire were bowled out for 206, with Atif Sheikh following his first innings 5-37 with 5-40, completing highly impressive match figures of 10-77.

In the process, he must have forced his way into John Morris' thoughts for the first team, as he has always challenged players to do their stuff to earn a place in the senior side. Khan also took 4-42 to follow his seven wickets against Yorkshire in the previous match.

Encouraging news.
