CC :: Durham v Warwickshire


BATTED LEESY LAD!!

100* from 283 balls with 11 fours.

Durham 239-1.

When did we last have both openers going to their century in the same innings?
I thought it would be a lot longer ago but it was 2017 away to Leics.
C.Steel 224 and Latham 124 in a score of 525-8 dec.

The following season we were all out for 61 and 66 on the same ground.

ah the heady days of when we had such high hopes for cameron steel :neutral:

youngest double centurion for durham iirc?
 
Should be ok for some play later. Theres a belt of showers coming off the north sea but looks like theyre going to pass to the south.
 
Close:

Durham 287-4 (119 overs) Lees 126*, Eckersley 7*. Lead is 200.
Just seen on the news, 3000 nightclubbing trial tonight in Liverpool yet I can't go and sit in the county durham upper tier to watch county cricket. what a fucked up country

I agree with your stance in regard to people not being allowed into cricket grounds because it’s batshit crazy that we can’t go. HOWEVER, the word trial is quite key in reference to that rave event.

Forecast for tomorrow seems pretty good, maybe a morning shower but we should be able to get two sessions of play as an absolute minimum.

With the lead now 200, I’d like to see us play some shots in the morning. No reason why we can’t score 120-150 in the session with a bit of positivity. We want to be bowling again after lunch, Sunday’s forecast is poorer and there’s always the chance of a bit of bad light. I’d hate to think we run out of time because we batted too slowly tomorrow morning.

Excellent from Lees and Young today, they’ve pretty much taken this game away from Warwickshire on their own. We now need to capitalise on what is the best position we’ve been in at any point in any game this season - given the performances we’ve already seen, that’s saying something.
What a great signing Alex Lees has been for us.

Hear hear.
i'm probably in the 1% of people who follow county cricket and not yet old enough to have been offered first jab, most will have had both already
Same boat marra - key worker too, but clearly not important enough ;)

Yes but nightclubs don't attract OAPs who die like flies from covid.
It doesn't spread outdoors in a breeze but maybe the issue is congregating in toilets, food places, entrances ie encloses places. I don't know but I think t+it's all going to become moot fairly soon.
