Will Tarrant took his overnight score to 42 before being dismissed, while Mitch Wagstaff scored 11. Victory was sealed by Amrit Basra, who made an unbeaten 30, with six fours and a winning six from just seventeen deliveries.
While my viewing, like everyone else, has been limited to the clips, Basra looked on a different level to everyone else in this match. One would hope, whether it was with Derbyshire or elsewhere, that there was a place in county cricket for a player of such obvious talent.
But that is another fine display by the twos and Ben Aitchison will be very happy with his continued return and his spell of captaincy.
Absolutely right about the clips of course - but I'd hope we can hold on to Basra before somebody else snaffles him up.
ReplyDeleteUnusual for Derbyshire for both the first team and the seconds to be playing well. Some interesting decisions for Mickey as to whether he sticks with the current first XI or rotates a few in and out.
