Despite a 113 run opening partnership between captain Harry Came, who top-scored with 97, and Martin Andersson (33), Mickey Arthur’s men contrived to lose the game where they were in positions to win.
Tom Westley’s 10th List A hundred was enough to see Essex post a tricky score of 257/7 from their 50 overs as Derbyshire looked to grab their first win of the Metro Bank One-Day Cup. Rory Haydon and Anuj Dal were the pick of the bowlers for the Falcons with Dal collecting his best List A bowling figures in the process of 3-33, but inexplicably bowled just eight overs while Nick Potts appeared to bowl two overs too many.
