Bob Willis Trophy: Leicestershire v Durham

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

It is an academy friendly, not a first team T20 warm up.

We've had a lot of senior squad members playing for the academy in recent weeks. Clark scored a century the other day for them. I'd hazard a guess they are playing at Tynemouth today assuming it's on. It's hideous to stick with the same squad though.
Unfortunately you only find out these things by looking on local cricket websites as the club literally provide no updates now which to be fair they weren't very good when they were "good".
I just can't begin to fathom out the logic of keeping the same squad. Hopefully we win but with a short season, in my opinion it's only fair to give everyone as much of a chance as possible.

No idea mate but T20 specialist Nathan Rimington as quoted by Marcus North was down to play.

While I love other sports it's as bad as iv felt as a fan supporting Durham and Sunderland

Hideous to stick with the same side.

Hideous to stick with the same side.

Bizarre indeed

Gordon and Bobby Steel are brothers.

I remember Gordon well as he opened for East Rainton for years and I got him out in a cup final once. Where did Bobby play?

 

[leecoo]

Dickson hasn't made a good impression whatsoever so far, poor scores and dropped catches

 

[SAFC11]

Dickson seems to offer nothing and steels time must have ran out

I understand your argument for changing the batting, but as we discussed last week I don’t totally agree with it.

It certainly isn’t hideous - but I definitely get your anger/frustration.

Surprised Rushy getting dropped hasn’t got more comments.

Well 2 have failed again in the top order. How many more chances are they allowed in what is a short window of games this season?

I’d suggest he’s being rested.
