Derbyshire

Derbyshire Falcons and Lancashire Lightning could not be separated in yet another enthralling Vitality Blast match that went right to the wire.

Derbyshire lost a tight battle with Lancashire at the Central Co-op County Ground, defeated by only four runs. That loss means the Falcons are realistically out of contention for a knockout phase place in this year's Vitality Blast T20 Competition.

The Peakite spoke to Nigel Mallender, the chairman of Chesterfield Cricket Club, following the end of this year's Chesterfield Festival of Cricket.

Gloucestershire Women proved to be too strong for Derbyshire Falcons Women on the penultimate day of the Chesterfield Festival of Cricket.

While the news that Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar will no longer be re-joining Derbyshire Falcons after all is a big blow, Mickey Arthur has acted quickly to ensure that a high-quality international replacement has been sorted.

Derbyshire's second side fell to a red ball defeat against Lancashire in Merseyside and must now shift their attention back to the T20 format.

It's that time of the year again! The beloved Chesterfield Festival of Cricket starts tomorrow as Derbyshire aim to record their first County Championship Division Two victory at Queen's Park since 2022.

Derbyshire are staring down the barrel towards their fourth loss of the season as they succumbed to a powerful second day performance from Division leaders Durham. Mickey Arthur’s men have been second best in this encounter and will start day three on 99 for four in their second innings, still trailing Durham by 160 runs.
