Durham v Derbyshire preview

Derbyshire travel up north tomorrow in rude health and aiming for anothrr win that will cement their position at the top of the group table.

Brooke Guest makes his first appearance behind the stumps as Harvey Hosein is rested, while both Luis Reece and Fynn Hudson-Prentice return from injury. A final decision on the bowlers will be made tomorrow, but the 13 is:

Godleman, Reece, Madsen, Du Plooy, Hughes, Critchley, Guest, Hudson-Prentice, Dal, Aitchison, Cohen, Conners, Barnes.

Durham have had a poor tournament but have some good players and will be aware that they have something of a spell over us on this ground. 

They have also named 13, which is:

Alex Lees, Sean Dickson, Michael Jones, David Bedingham, Gareth Harte, Stuart Poynter, Ned Eckersley (c,wk), Brydon Carse, Paul Coughlin, Ben Raine, Matthew Potts, Matthew Salisbury, Chris Rushworth

I will be traveling tomorrow so won't see much of the first day's play, but if we play as we can, this game is very winnable.

With two group games to go, we control our own destiny.

You can't ask for more than that. 

Good luck lads.

  1. Although you are travelling tomorrow I'm struggling to find a Durham CCC stream. Will have to listen to internet instead.

    I would leave out Alex Hughes and Ed Barnes assuming full fitness of all.
