Derbyshire want to host international fixtures when the redevelopment of the Racecourse Ground is complete. “We want to give Derbyshire a stadium that is capable of staging one-day internationals and Twenty20 finals,” says chief executive Tom Sears. “If we could even get one international match every three years, that would give us a lot more financial security.” The first stage of redevelopment is appointing a
development company that will aim to sell off land to fund an extra 6,000 seats at the ground.
