    Durham County Cricket Club

    To those of you who’ve spoken out on my behalf tonight, god bless you ☺️ Fair play to Raine and Hogg today for taking the blows and playing through the pain - getting to the close in our first innings is a big positive, not least because it’ll probably mean 3 overs are lost tomorrow for the...

    No wonder England binned Farbrace, boring git.

    This Rob Rush fella on commentary is absolutely shite, genuinely don’t know how he gets a gig. Can’t get over how bad the decision to get rid of Marty was.

    Slight advantage to Sussex after Day 2, but we’re only one good session away from being in the driving seat.

    I don’t get it either mate, prided myself on never having been a retread, not sure I could be chewed being ‘someone else’. Looks like it’s the end of the road for me.

    He can be very hit and miss in white ball, the better players often take quite a liking to him, but it was pleasing to see him doing well today.

    Aye, I was in a dark place when I posted that, but generally the whole idea of cutting the Championship AGAIN infuriates me when large portions of the season are left without fixtures.

    Durham County Cricket Club

    This years scheduling seems so depressing, it’s June, it’s essentially ‘the height of summer’ and yet Durham have seen a weekend without cricket and have bizarrely only played 3 Blast games whilst others have played 5. I know the scheduling debate is done several times each year, but it’s stupid...

    Durham County Cricket Club

    Always felt we were short on the runs, remarkable that we took it so deep really. Bowing suddenly looks immense, especially Foulkes and Neesham, but I think we need more explosive men up top in the batting. It’s no good absorbing so many dot balls in the power play.

    Not if they aren’t ready 🤷‍♂️ I know this discussion has been done before, but the club need to win games and that is especially true of a format where we’ve been perennial strugglers. Take Hogg for example, he’s got bags of potential and is highly rated by so many pundits but he was a...

    A sight that sums up county cricket and its supports: 643 people are currently watching the live stream at Worcester showing a covered square 😂

    Mark Wood told the TMS podcast last week that he’s targeting playing Championship cricket for Durham in July. I laughed out loud when I heard him say it. There’s more chance that I’ll be playing.

    Durham County Cricket Club

    I’m gutted, even more so than the Warwickshire defeat - which I thought would hurt for the entire season. I have genuine concerns that we could go down, because the second half of our campaign appears to be much much tougher on the face of it. When our bowlers are dropping at the rate that they...

    It’s over, Somerset have broken the back of it. Losing Yusuf was huge because Hogg is a liability, he’s far too expensive to be trusted in this run chase. Disappointed with Minto today too, he’s bowled far too short, hard to be too tough on kids though, he’s got plenty to learn but the time to...

    Perfect batting conditions, the breeze will nullify any swing. Not confident at all unfortunately. Going to be two very difficult to take defeats at home this season.

    It’s maybe harsh to criticise Robinson, who actually scored runs in this game, but his two dismissals were absolutely vile given the circumstances. Woke up to sun and blue sky, perfect batting conditions, reckon Somerset win by 5 or 6 wickets in the middle of the afternoon.
