County urged to put on a show
IT may be all over as far as qualification for the quarter-finals is concerned but Derbyshire still have one more home fixture to go in this season's Twenty20 Cup competition.
They take on Durham tonight at the County Ground (7pm) and head of cricket John Morris has called on his players to put on a show for the home fans against a Dynamos side still in with an outstanding chance of reaching the last eight.

GOOD PACE: Wavell Hinds' batting has impressed John Morris.
As attention now turns to the resumption of the Championship season at Essex on Sunday, Morris says he was happy with much of what he saw in the defeat at Old Trafford on Monday before Lou Vincent's match-winning intervention.
“What I was particularly pleased about was that Jamie Pipe and Wavell Hinds built a partnership and I thought they played brilliantly,” he said.
“That's what we've got to do more of.
“Wavell is starting to get the feel of it and he played some fantastic shots.
“He paces his innings so well, that's the beauty of it, and doesn't look rushed at all.
“He's looking the part for us and that's what we brought him in for – to provide that extra bit of quality.
“It's all over for us now but we'll still play as well as we can in these two games.
“We'll learn from what we've done wrong, pick ourselves up and get on with it but it would do us no harm to finish with two wins in our last games in this competition.”
