Alleyne leads from the front against dispirited Derbyshire
Nigel Gardner - 20 June 2001

Mark Alleyne's rich vein of form continued with his second century in successive matches to put Gloucestershire into a strong position at the end of the first day at Derby.

The Gloucestershire captain added an unbeaten 114 to the 132 he made against Durham at Gloucester and with Kim Barnett, Chris Taylor and Jeremy Snape helping themselves to half-centuries, the visitors ended on 374-4.

It added up to another dispiriting day for Derbyshire who took only one wicket between lunch and the close.

Tim Munton bowled an impressive 10 over spell in the morning but Gloucestershire's batsmen encountered few problems on a slow pitch which is expected to take turn later in the game.

Barnett got Gloucestershire moving with some typically flashing strokes on his return to the county he left in 1998.

His 73 included 10 fours, two of them all run and he looked set for a century until he played around a ball from Paul Aldred.

Munton had snared Dominic Hewson and Matt Windows cheaply but Taylor and Alleyne added 147 in 48 overs before Taylor, who took a six and two fours from a Paul Aldred over, was lbw to the pace bowler for 83.

Alleyne went to his century, his 21st in first-class cricket, from 202 balls and had shared an unbroken stand of 103 with Snape when the close signalled an end to Derbyshire's torment.
