Sidley host tense derby clash

SIDLEY take on Bexhill at Gullivers on Saturday July 13 in a Sussex Cricket League derby.

Despite being bottom of the Second Division, rookie Sidley captain Scott Woodroffe is confident his side can win.

He said: "I don't need to fire up the players for this match. We have not done ourselves justice lately but hopefully that will change. "Last time we played each other Bexhill won by 43 runs, so we want to get our own back."

Bexhill lie on the fringes of the promotion places and captain Sam Roberts knows how derby games tend to throw up surprises.

He said: "Sidley will get fired up on Saturday. We socialise quite a lot with them and get on well, which makes the rivalry between the two teams intense."
