This comment aged well. Hopefully as we have 9 bowlers to choose from we will defend this ok.
The only way to comment is live imo and it was not a great start but we held our nerve and worked our way into the innings, something we haven't been doing throughout the competition.........games change as they progress and I am pleased that both openers used this game to find their best form.
Excellent innings from Davies and Latham in particular.
It proves that you can have a look early doors as long as you have a plan to progress things.
Some poor bowling from Derbys though.
The outfield looks iffy as well, several simple misfields so far
Better going now
Notts with their noses in front currently, Leics going well but 3 wickets down & Northants putting Durham to the sword...........things are going to swing though
We have to start being creative now & take risks. We have wickets in hand

The comentators have said it is a very used wicket.
THe camera work and vision mixing on the Derbyshire live stream isn't the best.
The visuals at both Derby & Leicester are particularly poor
2 nice cricket shots from Latham in that over tbf, need to move the scoreboard on now
3 off the first over
Latham has 1 run from 4 balls
I can feel a ridiculous Davies wicket coming
The players look beaten, their body language speaks volumes.
Northants are going for it but some of our bowling is very poor.
ETA: Gleason the perfect example there, surprises the batter with a short ball and then bowls another straight after that goes for 6. Where is the thought process?
Well, that was an exciting game.
Good win but I agree with other posters that we left 10-15 runs out there tonight making the game closer than it needed to be.
There was indeed something in the pitch for the bowlers.
Hose will pull this off if we dont get him soon, he has his eye in
Bairstow 116 from 54 balls & Luxton currently 80 off 41 for Yorkies vs Lancs
We have been reckless throughout this competition with the bat. Sometimes it has worked out, albeit slightly lucky.
Tonight, we got away with a few lucky boundaries early on but it has evened itself out. Some ridiculous batting/running going on.
Hopefully there is something in this pitch for our bowlers
There is either something in this pitch for the bowlers or we have given wickets away.............what on earth are Miles & Garton doing between them there?
Ridiculous batting in the last 3/4 overs. Just not good enough at all
Worcs keeping Taylor on who has looked dangerous
Another poor shot from Davies, you cant be cutting at good deliveries like that
The pitch looks like it is giving us problems early on
Good win, Hartley put his hands through a few though.
It is a tight table. Another win should do it but 2 would be ideal.
We could do with taking a bit of pace off the ball
Great catch by Yates......that over was looking a bad one until then!
