Three more players have committed their futures to Brackley Town following their promotion to the Vanarama National League - including long-serving skipper Gareth Dean. All three played key roles as the Saints won the Vanarama National League North title, and they have been rewarded with new deals as Brackley make the step up to the fifth tier of English football.

The Steelbacks may have kicked off their Vitality Blast campaign with an impressive win double at the weekend - but Ben Sanderson says there is still plenty of room for improvement. Chasing just 123 to win after Sanderson and Willey's early blitz reduced the visitors to 39 for seven, the Steelbacks were then indebted to 46 not out from 40 balls from Ravi Bopara as they sturggled to get over the line with just four balls to spare.

Northants Steelbacks have named an unchanged squad for the trip to take on Derbyshire Falcons in the Vitality Blast on Wednesday night (start 7pm). That means there is a place in the 14 for Justin Broad, who missed Sunday's win over Leicestershire Foxes due to 'a medical condition', but there is no return for James Sales. The young all-rounder was due to undergo a scan on Monday on a back issue that ruled him out of last Friday's win at Yorkshire Vikings.

Ben Sanderson declared it 'a great honour' to have joined David Willey in the Northants Steelbacks 100 club. The 36-year-old became only the second County bowler to go past the 100-wicket mark in T20 cricket at Wantage Road on Sunday, reaching the milestone when Leicestershire Foxes' Lewis Hill was caught at gulley by George Bartlett.

Darren Lehmann believes Northants Steelbacks can attack a tough run of away games with confidence after opening their 2025 Vitality Blast North Group campaign with back-to-back victories. The Steelbacks followed up a high-scoring win over Yorkshire Vikings at Headingley on Friday with an edgy and low-scoring five-wicket victory over Leicestershire Foxes on Sunday.
