Form on the Cobb
Tuesday 15 May 2012 17:36, UK
Leicestershire's Josh Cobb and Netherlands' Stephan Myburgh are the early Sixes League pace-setters.
Leicestershire's Josh Cobb and Netherlands' Stephan Myburgh rocketed to the front of the Sky Sports Sixes League after week one of the Clydesdale Bank 40. The 21-year-old Cobb battered six of the best in an impressive knock of 137 against Lancashire at Old Trafford, while Myburgh matched the feat as he shone with an unbeaten 74 against Worcestershire. Sussex youngster Matt Machan was also in eye-catching form with the bat - clearing the ropes four times during his 126 not out against the Unicorns at Hove. Despite a breezy 51-ball innings of 59, last year's champion Darren Stevens failed to register a six for Kent in their four-wicket victory over Yorkshire.Standings - Week 1
