Durham County Cricket Club

[The Red Telephone]

Good session by Durham there.

 

[Durham Fan]

Literally no words to describe how sh*t Potts has been here.

Wondered if I was the only one thinking this. He’s been poor in all 3 games IMO. Certainly doesn’t look like an England bowler at the moment.

 

[Aidan11]

100 for Lees

 

[The Red Telephone]

Well done Leesy lad.

 

[CartyDurham]

Quick nip in. Well in Leesy

Gay hopefully can bat through the day

 

[Aidan11]

50 for Emilio too.

This should boost his confidence after a shaky start to the season.

 

[CartyDurham]

Yes and Gay gets a 50. Play on my lovely lads. Double your scores

 

[Aidan11]

150 partnership.

Keep going lads.

 

[Aidan11]

That was four. Cheating Yorkies.

 

[Aidan11]

Only caught a bit of Campbell on commentary.

Re Parky - seems like the Riverside pitch is not helpful to spinners. Although he is still part if his plans he did say Drissell had an impressive pre season.

Re Bas - he's out with a back injury at present but the way Cambo was talking suggested he could be still part of the red ball campaign rather than just playing white ball cricket.

 

[CartyDurham]

224 for 1 at tea

Lees 149 and Gay 74

today has went just about perfectly for Durham

said earlier I wanted around 280 for 4 but we may outdo that , if the weather allows

Very heartening today

 

[Aidan11]

Off for bad light but they are taking tea.

I've got a horrible feeling that now we look to be getting in top, the weather will save the Yorkies.

I think they are hoping Ackers can hold an end with spin in these early season games

good news on De Leede as well

Bad bloody light. The worst thing about cricket anywhere

Bob Willis used to say “show me the dead bodies” when they came off in the past

really annoying as I don’t think the weather has been any different all day

 

[CartyDurham]

Just had a check. Revis 3 overs for 36 Hope they keep him on post tea

Came on here to say exactly the same, Yorkies sprinted off the field there, were in a position here to bat them completely out the game but I fear our hand will be forced early due to the weather intervening.

 

[CartyDurham]

It’s brightening up where I am about 3 miles from the ground

overcast but brighter so hopefully we will get some more play

floodlights not allowed to be turned on ?

 

[CartyDurham]

Game has restarted

 

[Aidan11]

I agree with the commentator that we are unlikely to get all the required overs in tonight

 

[CartyDurham]

Was hoping to catch an hour on YouTube when the full times are in

Cant watch nufc playing v villa , currently have three screens in play with snooker , soccer Saturday and here

I’m going even more cross eyed
