Another must win

Derbyshire team
CF Hughes, WJ Durston, WL Madsen*, DJ Redfern, JA Morkel, PI Burgoyne, RM Johnson, T Poynton†, TD Groenewald, ML Turner, TC Knight

Durham team
MD Stoneman*, P Mustard†, SG Borthwick, WR Smith, BA Stokes, GJ Muchall, GR Breese, RD Pringle, MJ Richardson, G Onions, C Rushworth

1 over gone and Derby already 1 down :-D

Rocky gone for two. cheap again
 

Ffs same old story. Stoneman Borthwick Smith offering absolutely nowt with the bat leaving the lower middle order with virtually an impossible task.

Really not sure about Stonemans captaincy. Will Smith bowled 3 overs for just 9 - where was his 4th over!?!?!?

I don't understand the line up. Why is our highest average batting at 6 whilst our 8th best batsman's at 4?

Relying on the same 3/4 batsmen (3 of which dont even bat in the top order) every game to pull them out the shit after Smith, Borthwick & Stoneman have been f•cking about is annoying.

It's madness. How long are they going to take to realise it isn't working? It's almost as if we're in a situation where if Mustard gets out, we're praying for three or four wickets to be down so the real batsmen are in :shock:.

Stokes and Breese are far and away better batsmen at T20 than any other top 7 batsman (bar Mustard). Even Muchall has been alright in this format actually.

Should be Mustard, Stoneman, Borthwick, Stokes, Muchall, Breese, Richardson, Smith.

We're on the telly on Thursday too, I reckon we could do with wins for Notts and Yorkshire on Tues/Weds.
 
I'd personally go

Mustard
Stoneman
Breese
Stokes
Muchall
Pringle
Richardson
Borthwick
Smith
Onions
Rushworth

If Colly is fit i'd bring him back at the expense of Richo or Pringle
 
I don't really care about the short form pajama stuff, but we have done OK so far. If we win the last two games we may even qualify and a couple of the defeats were close, so at least we have been competitive.

Far more concerned about the last few games in the Championship as I would love us to win that again. It would be a huge boost to the club and a massive kick in the teeth to the media who had us as relegation cannon fodder.

Seriously thinking op booking a few days off for the away match v Yorkshire at Scarborough. Always wanted to see some cricket there and it's shaping up to be a big game.
 
Considering the same too. I thought it was a cracking venue when I saw us play
in a pro40 down there.

I'd f***ing hate to go there and see us lose. I might wimp out on a visit

Though I need to go over there anyway for work
