More excellent signing news from Derbyshire this afternoon, with Joe Hawkins signing a contract with the club until the end of August.
This will see him eligible for the entirety of the One-Day Cup, as well as tomorrow's game at Northampton. With the pitch there liable to take spin and Alex Thomson out with a broken finger, my guess is that he will make his county debut.
I think he has a very bright future and he has looked like a young man with huge potential from when I first saw him. He is composed and organised as a batter, disciplined and unfazed as a bowler.
I am sure he will not be the last from a very encouraging assembly line in the Pathway.
Spot on as usual Steve....for me the big plus point of the season is the marked progression of the young crop of talent coming through. Whilst it doesn't mean anything yet its been quite sometime since we have had this much hope with our youngsters. Hats off to Daryn Smit and the team. Cheers Gary
ReplyDeleteHopefully the 3 lads who have signed contracts get plenty of opportunity over the next month.
