There is no Sam Conners, who looks likely to have played his last game for the club, but Derbyshire will arrive in good health and confidence for the game against table-topping Sussex.
The Derbyshire squad:
Came, Reece, Guest, Madsen, Lloyd, Donald, Dal, Chappell, Moore, Brown, Morley, Dupavillon, Potts
Sussex have the following squad:
Simpson, Alsop, Carson, Carter, Clark, Coles, Crocombe, Haines, Hudson-Prentice, Hughes, Hunt, Karvelas, Robinson, Unadkat
Sussex have played good cricket and look like being promoted this year on merit. They have recruited well and have two good overseas players in Hughes and Unadkat.
It will be a tough game for Derbyshire but also an opportunity to see where they are against a team that has managed to get to the brink of promotion.
By the end of it we will see if Derbyshire have the foundations of a side that could do so next year, or there is still considerable work to do.
The forecast is set fair for the four days, so it should make for enjoyable viewing.
See you tomorrow night!
Another positive performance might just tempt me to renew my little used membership!
