Zaheer gets one wicket, Worcs get edge over Derbyshire

London, July 28 (UNI) Zaheer Khan had an average outing for Worcestershire and the Team India discard grabbed just one wicket even though his side tightened its grip on the Division Two Liverpool Victoria County Championship match against Derbyshire.

Derbyshire's decision to bat first saw the side reaching 351 after losing all their wickets in 97.2 overs.

Zaheer was initially lacklustre but he came back to remove Graham Wagg (45), who was caught by Worcestershire skipper Vikram Solanki, just when the batsman was looking dangerous.

Zaheer's first innings spell read 17-2-57-1.

In reply, Solanki (140) led from the front as Worcestershire ended the second day of the Championship match at 457 for five, which gave them a 33-run lead.

Steven Davies was not out on 101.
