Myers, who scored 1180 runs for Quarndon at an average of 51.30, takes over the early leadership from Ockbrook's Trevor Smith. Myers' lead would come as a surprise to many of the site regulars, but his all-round ability sees him picking up votes on a regular basis. His bowling, for example, has netted him 27 wickets at an average of 26.26.

Smith (pictured right) remains well in contention for the £100 cricket voucher prize just three points behind the Quarndon pro, but hot on their heels is Denby's Ian Parkin. All-rounder Parkin is picking up points in best batsman, best fielder and best all-rounder categories without leading any.

Best of the Derbyshire county players is Kevin Dean who lies in fourth place with 44 points, 13 points behind the leader. This is a fine achievement from the pace-man as he is only eligible for votes in one category.

There is still plenty of time to vote as the first stage of the competition runs until the end of October. At this time, the top 6 will go forward to an opinion poll which will decide the overall winner.
