Window Cleaner Posted 19 August, 2015 Share Posted 19 August, 2015 Not a great start today, Notts at nigh on 6 an over without loss after 14...mind you take away the Brigg's unique over that went for 13 and it's a bit less bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawson has just gone for 19 in an over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Window Cleaner Posted 19 August, 2015 Share Posted 19 August, 2015 Seems that there are rain delays in all 4 games, think 4 NRs would suit us down to the ground, maybe just a NR in our game would be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Munster Posted 19 August, 2015 Share Posted 19 August, 2015 According to my calculations a NR in just one of Hants v. Notts, Lancs v. Glam or Warks v. Kent should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent-Warks NR...that means we just need to bat not disastrously badly I think. If indeed we bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lickierambert Posted 20 August, 2015 Share Posted 20 August, 2015 I see Mark Footitt has rejected a new Derbyshire contract. I'd definitely hope, if we stay up, that the club are looking at offering him one. He's exactly what we need. Whether he would accept, I'm not sure, as inevitably the likes of Surrey and Notts are hawking around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucks Saint Posted 26 August, 2015 Share Posted 26 August, 2015 An example of our up and down season all in one important match.

Window Cleaner Posted 29 August, 2015 Share Posted 29 August, 2015 Looks like a bit of a disaster for Hants today, good start and then just keeping losing wickets without adding much to the scoreboard. Undone by spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nellie Posted 31 August, 2015 Share Posted 31 August, 2015 Cricinfo are reporting we've signed Reece Topley, and he could join on loan before the end of this season. Very good addition as he's got some pretty impressive stats, hopefully it wouldn't impact on Wood's progress though. http://www.espncricinfo.com/county-cricket-2015/content/story/915959.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to him the other day and although he is fine for 1 day games the longer form at 1st team level is a long way off. Massive shame but the signing of Topley will be a great addition and a coup by the club. We are still in talks with Fidel Edwards as well or were when I talked to Giles White a couple of weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadesmith Posted 31 August, 2015 Share Posted 31 August, 2015 Would be a great signing. I was actually concerned that if we went down would any players be looking to leave to enhance their England career ?(i.e. Vince) Not basing this on anything, but it seems more and more common for players in Div 2 to seek employment at Div 1 clubs.

I think that seems to be more to do with the bigger (i.e. Test-hosting) counties generally being in Division 1 these days, and therefore more able to pay the bigger salaries commanded by players on the fringes of the England setup but not quite good enough to get a central contract.

Could be true. If i'm honest I'm surprised that we can offer big wages I just presume (and again this is just a gut feeling) that we are not in great financial position. Although we must have so many revenue streams by now (Hotels.....Gigs..I also believe we stage cricket matches) I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost money on the recent "gig" much to the clubs dismay. We took all the risk and Boys Own were paid no matter what the situation. We do have revenue streams but......

Berkshire Saint Posted 2 September, 2015 Share Posted 2 September, 2015 119 for 6, effectively 81 for 6.

Durham's wicket never seems to be questioned despite games like this being a fairly regular event. I came to post the same thing. I'll never forget the game at the Agesa bowl about 5 years ago when all three results were possible off the last ball of a four day game, it ended in a draw, and Hampshire got docked points for having a pitch that took too much spin!! I agree anything over 150 will be tough BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
