No Marty on the live stream either. What a terrible morning.

He’s tweeted a few times this week to say him and the excellent Churchy will be on BBC commentary, but that the Middlesex stream has their own commentators - which in fairness have been good crack, but it’s a shame they couldn’t just add Marty on to it. Too much money down there 🤷‍♂️

Ours or theirs?

Pitch looks pretty slow and FLAT :eek:

Will be interesting to see what the paces of our lads is like once we get a bowl, their stream has a speedgun with the graphic appearing after every ball - Andersson is the quickest, but even still he’s only just getting over 80mph every so often. Murtagh opened up at 65-69 :eek: I think even I could handle that pace :eek:
-
One observation I’ve made mind, I can’t remember anything at all down leg side. They’ve bowled pretty tight lines all morning.
-
Feel this could be a testing period for Jones, he has got bogged right down here.

Very pedestrian attack from what I’ve seen so far like

Runs are there today just got to be disciplined and not force it
Also the outfield is absolutely Pristine

Could eat my dinner off it

Very short boundary on one side too, I’m sure Stokesy is licking his lips at the thought of facing the spinner with that…

Hopefully he doesn’t get a chance to attack it today though ;).

Hideous decision. The bloke is 6 foot 7, that’s going a good 6 inches over off stump.

Lunch: 81-1 (31 overs). Jones 35*, Peterson 0*.

One blemish on an otherwise excellent morning, I’m inclined to say ‘typical Durham’ losing a wicket so close to an interval but that wouldn’t be fair on Durham, cause Lees did nothing wrong at all. Just a disgraceful decision by Saggers. We’ll see how many of those we get when we bowl :rolleyes:

Interested in these bowling speeds being given on various streams.very few appear capable of bowling at 80mph and quite a few are literally bowling at about 70mph. I wonder if they are accurate.
