Durham’s T20 Campaign

We weren’t chasing 11 an over during the chase. We were chasing under 10s at one stage, with 2 set batsmen. Very poor to not finish it off from there on an absolute road

Staggering post, seriously.

We were chasing 224, more than 11 an over. For a few balls after an unbelievable start the rate briefly dipped under 10, but 10 an over is still an absolutely massive ask. Couple of dot balls and it's up to 11 again.

I despair, I really do.
 
I think with our batting from Coughlin at 6 to Borthwick at 11 they are all ok but you would probably want any of them them batting any higher than ,no 8.
Also again nine if the top 5 have batted through the innings which makes a huge difference and they have to take their share if the blame.
Unfortunately I think the worst news from this match is still to come. If he is knackered I think Durham could be as well.
 
A very creditable batting effort wrecked by Turners injury. Bowling was woeful at times though and is the reason we lost.

Not going to disagree about the buffet bowling but some of the batting was also poor.

Can't get too upset, I've had a canny night watching two games.

I just dont think people realise how hard it is to keep batting like that through a whole innings

you have to take big risks every few balls, it paid off to start with, but we couldnt keep it up

we dont have a strong batting lineup and have done remarkably well to get those 2 totals in 2 games.

we lost our overseas half way through too
