CC : Durham v Warwickshire

[Dexter]

Fair enough if that's your view, but I very much doubt we signed Rhodes to replace De Leede.

A top 3 batsman playing at 7 is stupid. Not sure on the logic from Campbell there, seems a just pick everyone option rather than make a call over Gay/Rhodes at 3.

With the form Robinson has been in surely at this point you put him at 7 and have six specialist batters ahead of him. Even Rhodes at six is better than seven.

Nowt wrong with that

It's average let's bring back borthwick as well

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

It's average

It's perfectly fine for someone batting at 6/7. That would be over 800 runs a season

 

[Ottery]

Such a mature knock from McKinney.

And now he can open his shoulders

 

[chopsfc007]

It's perfectly fine for someone batting at 6/7. That would be over 800 runs a season

He wouldn't get that in division 1

 

[MustardAndOnions]

What I find funny about cricket. Hit an attacking shot and get out = throwing wicket away

Hit attacking shots to the boundary = silence

Both the same just one executed well

Not aimed at this forum btw just cricket in general

De leede averaging 31 isn't exactly good

He also bowls near 90mph

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

We'll never know.

Exactly when you’re an all rounder

Thought he broke partnerships well

Real potential like it’s a shame he doesn’t fancy it
Proper 50 from Potts that


Played mint

 

[hudson88]

Class partnership when we were in a sticky situation, and by 2 local lads as well

 

[Durham-Mackem41]

Good recovery by these too hopefully we can sneak up to 400 still think we have left a few runs out there same as last week.

Potts put into context the pitch with his innings.

Mind you if I was Warwickshire coach I would be having a go at my captain 1 slip and a ring field to a number 9 when a team is 7 down is poor.

I thought there tactics where negative all day and they allowed Potts to get set and he said thank you very much.

McKinney was just excellent very mature innings.

 

[Inside Forward]

Well done McKinney and Potts, dug us out of a real hole. Hopefully we can make 400+ tomorrow.

 

[Monument View]

Well done McKinney and Pottsy to hold it together.
Better contribution from Gay and while Bedders looked a bit out of touch it was a canny knock from him in his first innings back

 

[Marko]

Well done potts. Calming innings after the last few dropping quickly

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Potts batted superbly well. A decent day overall on paper, however some are concerning me early doors.

Shouldn't be after 3 innings

 

[hudson88]

Shouldn't be after 3 innings

I think that’s what he meant by “early doors”

 

[chopsfc007]

I think that’s what he meant by “early doors”

And I don't think anyone should be after such a short period

 

[MustardAndOnions]

Suns out tomorrow till lunch anyway

400 is always a cracking score

Im not gonna criticize Rhodes it’s sooo early but there’s something coming down the line about asking a top 3 player to bat 6/7

Now that Doesnt mean dropping him but I’d argue that someone like Robinson would be better suited. It’s just a different skill set

 

[Dan..Dan..Dan..Dan]

Unsurprisingly Mrs RT's membership card wasn't ready for collection.

I was told the 'printer had broken at surnames beginning with O'. Apparently Callum has it in hand and they will be ready tomorrow.
