You forget that Hughes is still only 22...seems to have been around for years!!

If Clare and Hughes stay in for the next 30 mins and then beyond lunch the game could start to move very quickly.

Hughes and Madsen aside no one else has really hung around that much.

Think they may have been told to go for the extra batting point that was left.

ironically, that one yarkshire loving supporter of Chesterfield is silent at the moment, still I assume when things wrong as they inevitably will, he'll pipe up and tell us all where we went wrong.

Hello, you called???? For some reason we haven't started the season very well, even with Rooty and Bres back in the side!

Wait while they are away with the England set up, it will be a long season for both. Durham could be our saviour I think this season.

[HistoricWarwick]

Ches is now second on the all time list! 267no!!

[JonB]

Hughes goes to second in Derbyshires all time list....268*

[Bushy]

Left high and dry on 270* - what an effort!

[shaun1866]

Absolutely gutted for him

[JonB]

As knocks go thats decent!! Groenwald probably padded up to the last ball of the over and been given LBW.

[Cartman]

Porkshire 70/0

need wickets

[JonB]

Amusing little stat off the back of the innings by Hughes :-

OptaJim ‏@OptaJim 57m
270 - @ChesneyH22's 270* is the 3rd highest LVCC score this decade after Carberry's 300* & Goodwin's 274* in 2011, all 3 were v Yorks. Big.

Make that 110/0, must be a fairly flat one at Headingley!

With the return of the heavy roller i suspect there could be more draws this season compared to last as wickets have the life squeezed out of them. At times being a bowler is a thankless task and you may as well just get a couple of bowling machines out and base games on which team can hit it out of the park the most!!
