That's in the same ballpark that Rocky would achieve.
I will say his scores this season is an outlier in the wrong direction . . . . . . . . but, the batting in this team is not the worry.

Borthwick has been worse. Only specialist batsman who has averaged under 40.

35 is fine and he has captained brilliantly
just beyond belief how negative people are
@smoker glad you find Borthwick's captaincy so amusing. Maybe if you went to games you'd see the impact he has
have a good day moaning.

its truedesperate for negatives in Durham's brilliant season
you also suddenly show up when England lose 1 game, despite not saying a word about all their success.
Extremely strange behaviour/
Very much someone who just looks at a piece of paper and decides "he's shite" withut actually watching the game itself.

No I'm laughing at you having another emotional overreaction to bog standard cricket discussion.
His batting form has been meh for a long time. Bowling has dropped off the radar. Captaincy has been very good and plenty of batsmen in form so his place is safe as houses.

I am just havin some crack like.
Just dont see why 35 is suddenly worthy of comment like? Seems OK to me.
clear your PM a sec marra

Why the overreaction and adhominems when someone is slightly critical of certain players?
People were being critical of Bedders who has two tons this season and averaging 42. Its statistical fact SB is in worse form with the bat.
The team as a whole has been in great form with the bat as a whole so neithers place is at risk

yeah fair enough. my bad.
Tea:
Durham 263-4
Clark 25*
Robinson 20*
Partnership is 42, which is our second biggest of the game.
I think often it’s easy to overanalyse things and this for me is one of them.
Regarding his strike rate, in this game he strode to the crease 10 minutes before lunch - the aim at that point was to not lose another wicket. It’s always difficult coming in after a big partnership and I would say (having batted in various positions) that number 3 is the most difficult position to bat.
We’re only really focusing on Badger because of how well the team as a whole have batted and as far as specialist batsmen go, he’s been the anomaly. He hasn’t batted badly at all, but in a season where many others are batting out of their skins, he’s been a mere human.

Been impressed with Robinson and Clark milking a very negative Leicestershire who are basically hoping they throw it away.

Durham's gameplan when batting first is simple, get to 400 quick as possible then get bowling
honestly dont think they want more than that at times, as only 4 days and the pitches are flat, need the time

Leicestershire are an absolute joke of a County. What were they chanting at the T20 the other week? “Can we play you every week?”. f***ing jokers.
f***ing jokers.
