Well that was a welcome change. Controlled the game from the first ball and calmly pushed on steadily through the day. Great knock from Lees. Pity Burnham couldn't get to a ton, but his 86 was an excellent contribution. Good decision by Leicestershire opting to field first. They looked shit sick. 5 sessions fielding should devastate them completely.
 
Only negative was Cameron Steel, he's a better player than he's showing at the moment. Hope he fixes whatever his issue is.
 
An excellent days cricket.Who would have thought Durham would have ended the day on 368-5.

A couple more innings like that from Lees, who was magnificent today, and you never know...the England selectors may come a looking!

Have to say Burnham looked a lot happier coming in at 195-3 than at the usual 20-3 :lol:and was a pity he missed out on his ton.

With promotion rivals Northants and Gloucs having decent days today we need to repeat this performance and claim the maximum 24pts.

Haway the lads!!
 
Excellent batting :) Would be great to take maximum batting points; when was the last time we managed that at C-L-S?

I know it's probably a rhetorical question but being a saddo I checked in the Yearbook, thinking it would be pre 2016, but it was August 2017 when we beat Derbys by 9wkts with Colly getting 177....funnily enough the wicket was pretty central for that match as well.
 
We’re 397-6 and they’re still miserable?

Mind I’m sure they were miserable when we won back to back Championships in fairness.

******MAXIMUM BATTING POINTS******
Sitting here as seats more comfortable for wife (mobility issues) and the tutting/looks of disgust when asking them to let us through to get to some seats was clearly noticeable. Sarcastically cheering Trevaskis when he played a shot as well after a few dot balls
 
450 up. I'd declare an hour after lunch if we're not all out by then. Even as it stands they need 300 to avoid the follow on.
