Seconds win twice against Lancashire

Derbyshire's second team played two T20 matches against their Lancashire counterparts at West Houghton Cricket Club today.

In the first, a strong Derbyshire side won by 5 wickets. Lancashire made 126-7, with the talented Harry Singh making an unbeaten 81 and no one else passing ten. Alex Thomson took 2-20, while Mohammad Ghazanfar and Samit Patel each bowled four tight overs. 

Derbyshire chased them down with five balls to spare, despite Nye Donald being run out without scoring. Yousaf bin Naeem made 39, Ross Whiteley 31 and Harrison Parker 27

In the second game, a much younger side restricted the same Lancashire eleven to 111-9, with Joe Hawkins taking a remarkable 2-12 in his four overs and Ajay Khunti taking 3-13 with his leg spin.

Derbyshire again chased them down to win by four wickets, Khunti (27) and Hawkins (18) the main contributors. Against an attack including Charlie Barnard and Tom Hartley, that was a good effort.

    Now that T20 progress is such a longshot as to be almost out of sight the lad Hawkins should really be given some games.

    Donald’s dismissal without facing a ball is worth a look 😂😂😂
