Derbyshire chief executive Ryan Duckett has given head of cricket Mickey Arthur his “strong” backing after a disappointing season so far.
Although they have won their first two group games in the One-Day Cup, Derbyshire are bottom of Division Two in the County Championship, having come sixth out of eight last year and been fifth in 2022 – Arthur’s first summer in charge.
The Falcons, T20 Blast semi-finalists in 2019, and quarter-finalists in 2023, also failed to reach the knockout stages of this year’s competition.
Arthur, 56, said he was “going nowhere” after the heavy Championship defeat by Yorkshire at Chesterfield at the start of the month – and that same stance was taken by Duckett.
“Mickey is fully committed to this project and to bringing success to the county,” Duckett told BBC Radio Derby.
