LVCC D1 - Durham v Warwickshire

Finally.

Could do with getting these last two quickly. As I said earlier, 40-50 is a more than useful lead.

9 down. Stokes gets Patel.

208 for 9. Lead still 59.

10 and 11 in now.

209 all out.

Lead is 58. Happy with that.

Now to build on that lead with the bat.
 
58 lead, always take that. Be great to think we can bat with a bit more application second time around and maybe two or three of our deep batting card can get fifties.

I'd like nothing less than 270 second time around please. Just got to be wary of a tricky evening session. What's the forecast like for the rest of the game?
 
Looks like there are showers about for the next few days, which might actually help us if we can get enough runs on the board. Loads of time left in the game, so the trick is to get 300 to 330 ahead, which should be enough.
 
Could Stoneman be getting an England call up soon

We are not exactly blessed with quality English opening bats on the county circuit and he is averaging nigh on 45 this year in div 1 playing on a bowlers wicket for half his games

Cook and Root for the foreseeable...... Another tidy innings today, having a great season (the season we all hoped he'd have a couple of years ago).
 
Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory :evil:

Anything below 250 gives me no confidence of a victory. Can't see them batting as badly second time around.

These 2 both made useful runs in the first innings, is it too much to hope for lightning to strike twice? It probably is, but another 50 would be lovely thanks. At least there's no declaration decision to be made.

At least Sussex look like not getting a result and Middx are being tanked.

I hope they declare over night just to see if you spontaneously combust :lol:
