CC :: Durham v Worcestershire


Doesn't work like that though.

It does if that’s the way the club wanted it to work? Anyway, moot point.
These short term signings are getting ridiculous now. Yorkshire have had about 5 already across all formats, 3 games here, 4 games there, back for another 6...

I’ve made my feelings clear on the T20 thread, but essentially, we’ve got 7 (SEVEN) players missing with either international call-ups or injury.

Show me a team* who copes with that sort of upheaval?

Genuinely can’t find fault with this.

*Yorkshire aside.

I think under the circumstances the club would be happy he cut his holiday short to play in the T20. Let's just leave it at that.
 
F*ck sake.

So what are our bowling options?

Rushworth, Salisbury, Raine and Coughlin? Provided they’re fit and can be risked? I do hope the club is having words with Tye about playing in this one.

Wasn’t ignoring your point on the T20 thread about Tye marra, but better to discuss it here.

Or it was, until it became moot ;)

Aye, I hear ya, but he’s here anyway isn’t he. He’d only have been twiddling his thumbs for a week.

any word on it?

he doesnt play a lot of FC cricket but talented lad
Not sure but he is signed up for the T20. Not sure why he would want to be bowling 25 overs a day at his age when he is a specialist T20 player. Iam not saying Durham would be against playing him just can't see what Type gets out of it other than injury bowling overs he is not used to bowling.

You might be right but its worth asking, he likes the area, he might be happy to help out short term

Tye hasn’t played a first class game anywhere since 2018. I’m guessing a squad of 13 from Jones, Eckersley, Trevaskis, Raine, Salisbury, Rushworth, Bedingham, Clark, Bushnell, Coughlin, Dickson, Gibson, Drissell. Hopefully Dickson might be fit? Perhaps even Borthwick after his injection? Not sure they’ll risk Coughlin for a four day game. As for a captain……. ?
Gibson, I have heard, is also injured

We’ve signed the Kiwi lad mentioned earlier, so Tye won’t be playing.

Don’t like the rule in general or counties able to sign players for 1 game like

Brings competition into question

Good overseas players should be invested in the club
Borthwick in the squad for batting ?

I think he’s playing like, just not risked tonight for that reason
Gibson, I have heard, is also injured

I wonder if we will see drissell then
 
Best case scenario will be
Jones
Dickson
Borthwick
Bedingham
Ravindra
Trevaskis
Eckersley
Coughlin
Raine
Salisbury
Rushworth

Ravindra is with the Kiwi touring party, played in their warm up games so he's not coming in cold.
