Fiery display by Hadlee
NZPA London Richard Hadlee, the New Zealand cricketer who played a big part in Nottinghamshire’s county championship success last season, put his side in control with another fiery display of fast bowling on the Trent Bridge pitch yesterday. Hadlee, with a six-for-24 burst in 17 overs of controlled aggression, had Hampshire reeling at 68 for
eight as it replied to a total of 180. Three of Hadlee’s wickets came in the space of four balls, with Trevor Jesty, David Turner and Nigel Cowley following each other back at 44. Hampshire's gamble of putting the home side in on the notoriously lively pitch looked justified as Steve Malone took four for 53 and
Malcolm Marshall three for 53 in the moderate Nottinghamshire total. Hadlee was not the only fast bowler to shine on a day when wickets tumbled at most county grounds. The West Indian test star, Colin Croft, produced his best performance at Old Trafford as he took seven for 88 to help Lancashire dismiss Derbyshire for 216.
