Hampshire thrashes Derbyshire by 46 runs at Yorkshire Bank 40 - Group B – Cricket News
In the ongoing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yorkshire-c867 Bank 40, Hampshire secured an astounding win over Derbyshire by 46 runs in the Group B match of the tournament which was played on 18 June, 2013, at The Rose Bowl, Southampton.
Adam Wheater’s inspirational knock of 70 played a crucial role in Hampshire’s win along with a three-wicket haul by Sohail Tanvir.
After winning the toss, Derbyshire, chose to field first as they wanted to bowl-out their opponents on a meagre score. They made inroads early on by nabbing their first wicket with only eight runs on the board as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/James-Vince-c1657 was
dismissed by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jimmy-Adams-c1696. The two batsmen led their team towards 41
runs, before the departure of Adams, who was picked up by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mark-Turner-c1911 after scoring 24 runs.
The third-wicket partnership was even more lethal as Carberry and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Neil-McKenzie-c2094 continued the onslaught, hammering the bowlers all around the park.
This partnership took the sting out of Derbyshire, leading Hampshire to 114, before Carberry became the next batsman to lose his wicket. He was dismissed by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/David-Arlen-Wainwright-c52641 after smacking a 53-run knock.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sean-Ervine-c2471 was disappointing, as he could score only nine runs before walking back to the pavilion, leaving his side lingering on 133.
McKenzie was then joined by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jonathan-Clare-c1729 with 38 runs to his name.
Dawson and Wheater then forged another intimidating partnership as the duo led http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hampshire-c789 towards 221 runs, after which Clare trashed the party once again by dismissing the former on 34.
Consequently, the side managed to post a decent score of 277 runs on the board for the loss of eight wickets in 40 overs.
Beginning their run chase, Derbyshire lost their first wicket with only 13 runs on the board. However, the second-wicket partnership was productive as Wes Durston and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Paul-Borrington-c2162 hammered their side towards 54, before Durston
fell for 20.
Borrington and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/S-Chanderpaul-c2390 then kept their side alive by taking the score to 105 runs, after which this partnership met its end on the wicket of Borrington, who found his way off the field with 42 runs to his name.
Later, with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dan-Redfern-c1306 53, Derbyshire still fell short of the target, as they piled 231 runs on the board for the loss of eight wickets in 40 overs.
