WORCESTERSHIRE'S collapse put Derbyshire on course for their first home victory in the County Championship since the end of the 2014 season.

The visitors were routed for 164 and forced to follow-on in Division Two at Derby.

Billy Godleman's maiden double century and Neil Broom's 93 carried the hosts to 467-5 declared before Ben Cotton and Tony Palladino both took four wickets.

It looked a different pitch to the one that Godleman scored 204 on from 328 balls as Cotton and Palladino ran through the County, who finished the penultimate day on 24-1 in their second innings still 279 behind.

Godleman and Broom set the tone for a day of Derbyshire domination by taking their fourth-wicket stand to 155 in 36 overs with the former setting a county record for the highest score against Worcestershire.

Jack Shantry claimed his 250th first-class wicket when Godleman top-edged a pull to leg slip.

Then Broom planted Brett D'Oliveira into the hands of long-off.

Derbyshire's declaration at lunch was no surprise but the collapse that followed did, even though the light was poor enough for the floodlights to be switched on.

But that was no excuse for Worcestershire's limp batting as Cotton and Palladino blew away the top order in the opening 10 overs of the afternoon session with five of the first six mustering only eight runs between them.

D'Oliveira's flick off Cotton through mid-wicket was taken at short leg for four, Joe Clarke (0) edged to fourth slip and skipper Daryl Mitchell (2) had his off-stump knocked out when he shouldered arms.

Alexei Kervezee (0) was bowled off an inside-edge and Ross Whiteley (2) snapped up at first slip when he aimed a big drive at Palladino.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Ben Cox added 66 in 14 overs but Palladino removed any chance the County had of reaching the follow-on target of 318.

Cox (40) was trapped lbw and after Will Davis bowled Joe Leach (5), Palladino defeated Kohler-Cadmore's expansive drive for 29.

Matt Henry (31) unleashed some defiant blows, including a pulled six off Davis, before he flashed at Cotton.

When Ed Barnard (28) drove Chesney Hughes to cover, the County had been bowled out in 53.1 overs.

With nine overs to negotiate, Cotton removed Mitchell (6) for a second time when he drove loosely to gully.
