Arthur confirms Kerr departure

Head of Cricket, Mickey Arthur, confirmed in his post-match press conference after Derbyshire’s Vitality Blast quarter-final that all-rounder, Hayden Kerr, will return to Australia after suffering a side strain.

The 26-year-old played 14 matches for Derbyshire since joining the Club at the end of May and was a mainstay throughout the Falcons’ Club-record Vitality Blast North Group campaign.

Kerr claimed 18 wickets for Derbyshire, including 15 in T20 cricket at an average of 24 and with best figures of 2-6.

The Club would like to thank Hayden for his efforts and wish him all the best in his recovery.
