Durham v Middx (H) C:C.

No squad details yet but I would imagine that Dickson replaces the unavailable Jones at the top of the order. Then if everyone is fit the only question appears to be do Salisbury and Mcalindon retain their places.
 

I don't think there's any alternative to Salisbury or Mcalinden unless Potts is made available. Carse is out with bruised toe.

no idea why coughlin is out but at this point i'm just giving up and will assume he's injured permanently.

think macalindon showed more than gibson so aye, as you were aside from dickson for jones. which means again, i'm not confident we can take 20 wickets
 
Forecast is shit for tomorrow

Gibson bowled poorly on Friday, he looks miles off it but you never the thought process at the club at the moment with squad selections
 
Dickson returns.

No Eckersley, Salisbury or Coughlin. That said Salisbury wasn't in the last squad then played so who knows.

Interesting that Eckersley played on Friday, so that would suggest he's away at the end of the season. Marty on a podcast mentioned something about him going away to study.....

Coughlin didn't play on Friday which possibly suggests he's injured?

Ollie Gibson is also in the squad.
 
salisbury dropped again... looks like gibson is playing or we're going with only 3 pace bowlers?

Yes. Have to be honest Gibson looked poor in the 2nd game. My guess would be the following;

Dickson
Lees
Jones
Borthwick
Maddinson
Bedingham
Mckintosh
Trevaskis
Raine
McAlindon
Rushworth

i thought jones was away? was assuming that but with bushnell in place of jones. i'd probably play salisbury ahead of mcalindon though.

tbf i would be more confident of a chance of winning with trev batting 6 and salisbury instead of bushnell or one of the other bats. longer tail but i just can't see us taking 20 wickets with rushy, raine & mcalindon as our pace attack.

just shows how f***ing SHIT a signing maddinson is that i'd drop him for salisbury

The first Scotland T20 game is Wednesday and Jones was named in the Scotland squad......... fathom that out as I'm confused.
 
Scotland may have said he’s not going to play first game so play for Durham… not that hard to work out is it really
 
Dickson
Lees
Borthwick
Maddinson
Bedingham
Trevaskis
Raine
Mackintosh
Mcalindon
Gibson
Rushworth

I don't think they can risk going in with 3 seamers with Trevaskis and Borthwick as the 5th bowler.
The only other way I think they can do it if they think Bushnell is good enough to be the 4th seamer with the 2 slow bowlers backing him up.

Bushnell will be as effective as Gibson as 4th seamer imo.

Agree with this like, but even with this you're asking rushy to take 5+ in each innings to give us a hope imo
