CC :: Durham v Leicestershire


Oh well

Feels like a missed opportunity as we didn’t even slog bar that one Dickson shot

2 bowlers down like

But let’s see

I didn’t see Franklin in the changing room mind just north
 
Well let's hope we bowl them out tomorrow and all will be forgotten but if you want to get promoted you can't be not winning many of your your home matches against the likes of Leicestershire with 4 full days play.
 
Hopefully we can push on tomorrow & get the win, but last few days I've loved been back at the cricket & spending time with good people & having a good bit craic. Met some great people over the years down at the cricket. Long may that continue.

Had loads on today so didn’t get to see any of it live, just watched the whole day there with the old ten second skip inbetween balls to get through it.

I’m as baffled as everyone else with the tactics in the final hour - I’m happy Jones got a hundred but it took him far too long. In the end it was just ugly. We should’ve pulled the plug with about 7 overs left, leaving us 5 at them tonight. Their openers must be laughing themselves to sleep tonight, not having to face Rushy and Potts with a new ball tonight.

We should win tomorrow, a few balls in that last session were keeping low and the pitch has started to turn a little, but far too many times in recent history we’ve been left wishing we’d have had another half hour or so to go for the win whilst trudging off having only drawn a game.

They batted for 110 overs in the first innings and tomorrow will mark just a week on from them batting a full day to secure a draw, with Azad batting all 96 overs.
