Preview
Derbyshire lost their match by 7 wickets despite coming up to bat first and scoring 298 runs in the first innings. The batting order played their part excellently and gave a decent score to defend but the bowlers failed awfully. Harry Came played an excellent knock scoring 79 runs which was followed by Luis Reece and Haider Ali who scored 69 runs and 63 runs respectively. The bowling side collectively failed and was unable to pick up wickets. Anuj Dal only impressed a little by taking a wicket and conceding just 30 runs in 6 overs. With the loss of just 3 wickets, the opposition crushed Derbyshire’s bowling dugout. It will be important for the team to uplift their bowling performance to create a winning chance against Sussex.

Players to watch out for:
Luis Reece
For Derbyshire, all-rounder Luis Reece has established himself as a reliable performer with both bat and ball who is capable of flashes of form that may alter the course of a match. In 2017, he made his first-class debut for the team and scored a century. In 2019, he was an important part of the Derbyshire T20 team that earned a spot on Finals Day for the first time ever. Reece was at his best in all formats during the summer of 2019: he amassed 944 first-class runs and 55 wickets, including a career-high 184 and 5 for 63 against Sussex, was third in the team’s T20 run charts, and even hit a first List A century. In the last game, he scored 69 runs.
Sam Conners
A willowy seamer with the ability to bowl long stints, Sam Conners captured 50 Championship wickets in the summer of 2022 and was subsequently called up to the England Lions. Along with first-class statistics that were career highs, Conners also recorded his first List A five-for against Yorkshire in the Royal London Cup. Conners secured first-team opportunities in both four-day and T20 cricket by taking advantage of the absence of numerous senior players during Derbyshire’s 2020 season.
Possible Playing XI:
Harry Came, Luis Reece, Haider Ali, Anuj Dal, Suranga Lakmal, Sam Conners, Alex Thomson, Nick Potts, Matthew Lamb, Tom Wood, Brooke Guest

Players to watch out for:
Cheteshwar Pujara
Pujara is a successful defensive batsman who relishes wearing out attacks of bowlers before savoring them in an era of counterattacking batsmen. He steps down against spinners but keeps the ball on the ground. He is physical health allows him to bat for extended periods of time regardless of the opposition or the setting and that is his highest quality. He has also solidified his position in limited-overs cricket in England and in the last match he also scored a century. Picking his wicket is a personal achievement for any bowler. He will be the player who can win the first game for Sussex.
Aristides Karvelas
Johannesburg player Ari Karvelas, who was born in South Africa but is qualified to play for Greece, had previously played for Gauteng and a variety of county 2nd XI teams before being given a shot by an injured Sussex team in the middle of the 2022 season. Karvelas went on to take 20 wickets in nine Royal London Cup games, helping Sussex advance to the competition’s semifinals. At the end of the season, the tall seamer was given a permanent contract.
