ECB 38 County Round Up
In the ECB 38-County Cup, Richard Hignett was in irrepressible mood for Cheshire against the Derbyshire Board XI at New Brighton
In the ECB 38-County Cup, Richard Hignett was in irrepressible mood for Cheshire against the Derbyshire Board XI at New Brighton. Cheshire opened their Group Six programme with a crushing nine wicket verdict over the Derbyshire Board XI, thanks to a blistering 85 not out from Hignett, who smashed six sixes and 10 fours in a whirlwind 52-ball innings that swept Cheshire past Derbyshire's modest 160 for eight in just 26.5 overs.
Norfolk also began their ECB 38-County Cup campaign with a 12-run victory over Bedfordshire at Lakenham. Carl Amos hit 92.
