It was a busy week for Derbyshire with loads taking place. Blair Tickner was twice man of the match towards England, which actually could not occur to a nicer man, whereas I’ve had loads of messages asking who I wish to see as bowling coach.
Truthfully, I do not know, as a result of I don’t know who may be out there for such a job. I noticed that former England all rounder Craig White had left his position as bowling coach at Lancashire, however I don’t know if that was as a result of he had a proposal from elsewhere, or just needed a change. There will probably be loads of curiosity within the Derbyshire job, as I wrote the opposite day, and so they may need to re-work it to permit for specialist enter on a consultancy foundation, maybe bringing within the likes of Steffan Jones and Graeme Swann for various teams. It’s a clean canvas and they are going to be free to make use of it as they see match.
No different information from me right now, aside from that I’m going to be clearing out a few of my gathered memorabilia from over 60 years. I feel it’s the time to do it and something Derbyshire-related I’ll publicise right here.
First up is a beautiful miniature cricket bat in near-pristine situation, signed by the Derbyshire aspect of 1990, which gained the Refuge Assurance League. Autographed by the likes of Kim Barnett, John Morris, Chris Adams, Devon Malcolm, Ian Bishop and Adrian Kuiper, it’s a probability to personal a bit little bit of Derbyshire cricket historical past.
There’s a little wrinkling to the membership sticker on the high, however this doesn’t detract from a superb merchandise.
Lastly, I will probably be doing the sponsors draw for the cricket books within the subsequent 24 hours. Anybody who needs to let me know their desire has till this night to electronic mail me accordingly.
Till subsequent week – or as quickly as extra information breaks!
