A third away game in four matches sees the Rapids make the trip to Repton School, one of the most iconic out grounds in the country, to face the Falcons on Friday.
With batters Isaac Mohammed, Jake Libby, Kashif Ali and Ethan Brookes all having registered at least one score of fifty or above in the group stage so far, confidence amongst the batting unit is sky high.
Ben Allison returned career best figures last time out against Hampshire, as the bowlers showed their own impressive form, restricting their opponents to a score of under 200.
D’Oliveira says that the opposition won’t change the team’s mindset heading into the game, with the signs of consistency welcomed by the group after an up and down season to date.
“Derbyshire will bring their own threats, but we’re heading into the game in good form.
The goal is simple—carry on playing our positive cricket, back each other up, and aim to make it four games unbeaten.
“Consistency is key in any competition, as we learned in the Blast, so you can’t afford off-days, we will keep things simple and stick to what has worked for us so far.”
