"Only 10 overs were possible, but it proved sufficient time for the Tasmanian left-hander to reach the landmark with a glance to the fine leg fence. The 28-year-old, who reached the milestone in what was his 22nd innings for the county, also became the only wicket to fall, as Derbyshire closed on 33-1, bowled by a beauty from Ryan Higgins which flattened the off stump."
"The further frustration for Jewell was he had not reached the pavilion steps before the second rain interruption of the morning drove the players off for an early lunch. Only three more overs were bowled, during which Luis Reece survived two huge lbw shouts from Toby Roland-Jones. Both sides are desperate for a win to keep pressure on second placed Glamorgan in the Division Two promotion race. It will take creative collaboration between the respective captains to contrive a positive result on the final day."
Caleb Jewell reached 1,000 County Championship runs for the season on a rain-affected third day at Lord's. Only 10 overs were possible, with Jewell reaching the landmark via a glance to fine leg. Derbyshire were 33-1 when play was halted after Jewell became the only wicket to fall, bowled by Ryan Higgins. A second rain interruption forced an early lunch after only three additional overs, during which Luis Reece survived two lbw shouts. Both sides need a win to pressure Glamorgan in the Division Two promotion race, making the final day decisive.
