Derbyshire have named a 13-player squad for their Metro Bank One-Day Cup fixture against Durham at the Seat Unique Riverside Stadium tomorrow (11am).
Aneurin Donald is available for selection having been released by Birmingham Phoenix, and could make his List A debut for Derbyshire tomorrow.
Zak Chappell has picked up 15 wickets, putting him joint-third for the most in the competition, and will be hoping to close in on top spot with a strong performance up north.
Pat Brown has returned to to Northern Superchargers, having featured against Kent, while Daryn Dupavillon is absent after picking up a knock against Kent. He will be rested for this game, as he works towards the return of red ball cricket next week.
For Derbyshire to qualify for the quarter-finals, they must win and hope Hampshire fail to beat Middlesex, or defeat Durham by a big enough margin to overhaul the current net run-rate deficit between Derbyshire and Hampshire.

The Opposition
Durham sit one point above Derbyshire in the table, knowing that a win would see them through to the knockout stages.
Young batter Ben McKinney scored his maiden List A century for Durham in the previous round of fixtures, and is their leading run-scorer on 291.
Paul Coughlin has claimed 12 wickets at 19.33 so far in the campaign and alongside former New Zealand international Neil Wagner, Durham have a pair of highly skilled bowlers.
Pre-Match Talk
After last match, Brooke Guest spoke to Club Media and discussed Derbyshire’s chances heading into the final round of fixtures.
