Injuries hit ahead of Kent game

According to Nick Howson of The Cricketer, Derbyshire are 'sweating' on the fitness of both Blair Tickner and Luis Reece, ahead of the game with Kent on Friday.

Both have hamstring injuries, as does Pat Brown, his sustained in the second team win last week. 

It leaves Mickey Arthur with limited options, but Harry Moore is back training with the first team squad, ahead of his exams. The good news is that all are expected to be available for the start of The Blast, as is Alex Thomson, who suffered a reaction to a cortisone injection in his hand.

I guess it means that Zak Chappell won't be getting a rest for the Kent game and that the seam attack will be led by he and Ben Aitchison. Nick Potts might come into contention, but it might be that we need to enter the loan market - time will tell on that one.

  1. If Moore is available then he's straight in for me. Expect him to feature heavily in the Blast as well given he's been snapped up on a Hundred deal so clearly rated for his white ball ability elsewhere.
