CC : Warwickshire v Durham


wasn;t at all concerned after play last night as had every faith in us digging in which we have done for 90% of the day but the last hour has been a shocker. frustrating and questions need to be asked again about Borthwick as inevitably it will be Clark who makes way for Stokes which will be harsh
If the frailties continue at the top of the order with both Borthwick and Jones i can see Clark opening the batting later in the season.
 
Well what a wonderful start to the season this has been. Some woeful shots by out batters to get out to and and our captain has had an absolute nightmare.
 
We will have to perform a rain dance tomorrow to save this match. These shots by Lees and Borthwick at the end were plain stupidity given the game situation

Not so sure. Only takes one decent partnership or 1.5 sessions of batting to be in positive run territory plus new ball will only have 5-10 overs more of being 'relatively new'
 
Just ridiculus the amount of runs we conceded first innings

such a poor effort, doesnt matter how flat the pitch is or whatever.

Should be the last thing they do IMO

Took Clark a lifetime to find a position in the red ball, and he should not be moved, he would struggle

Frailties is a big shout, literally had 2 innings mate.

Bedingham,Robinson,Carse,Raine,Parkinson and Potss all gifted their wickets.

That coupled with toss decision.

If we get out with a draw then they are lucky lads
It was clearly a terrible decision to bowl first, but if I'm honest, I can easily see a scenario where we chose to bat first, batted as well as Warks did on day one and then declared on 550 early on day 2. Warks end up all out for 700 and here we are heading into day 4 12-2 and still 150 behind

Terrible toss decision, but we are in the situation we are in because we've been out batted, out bowled and out thought
 
And our Head Coach appears to have gone AWOL.Reckon he made that toss decision

Very harsh like, what do you want him to do mid match?

Invariably he appears in front of the media at close of play on one of the days.Undoubtedly he would have been involved in the toss decision and so perfectly reasonable to expect an explanation of his reasoning behind the decision in my humble opinion.
On a very flat track I would expect the early order to score big as Warwickshire did.In this situation .Compared to them,our early batting disappointed.
As you're very fond of criticising others' viewpoints might I point out to you,with respect,it is grammatically incorrect to end a sentence with the word like in the context you are using it.
Thank you
