CC :: Notts v Durham

[brandon]

Well done the Durham tail.
My only worry is that it looks a cracking pitch to bat on

It certainly does. Taken nearly a full session out of the game though so even if Notts go big we should be confident of getting a draw atleast.

Either way, with 325 on the board we’re well in the game.

Duke was Patron and “Twelfth Man” of the Lords Taverners, a role he still held until today, and always presented the County Championship trophy until the last few years.

I never saw him in there mind.

 

[brandon]

50 partnership for last wicket.

What is Rushy's highest score?

57.

 

[Bri]

Just seen the score. They've done bloody well. A competitive total and if Ball has broken down then it's going to be very hard for Notts from here.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Raine may as well give it a go as I cant see the last two hanging around very long.

Classic

Last three partnerships for Durham. Very good that.

 

[200 Miles Pilgrim]

330 - competitive score.

let's get at them - Rushy will be buzzing after that knock fancy him for a few early wickets (as normal!)

 

[TravellingMackem]

Nearing a no lose position with the forecast. Hopefully we give it a good go and push them

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

Is that REALLY the reason?!

Yes, Bracegirdle (sp) announced it was being halted out of respect to him. Mad.

Rushy looked LBW first ball to Fletcher to me mind, got lucky there.

 

[Ghfd]

My old adage of the last five wickets scoring came into play. 150 runs for the last five.

now it’s time for a bit of new ball damage.

 

[Dorlonco]

Great effort would have snapped your hand off for that score before the start of play yesterday. Not sure Notts will be too impressed. Winning the toss, inserting the opposition and then fielding for 4 full consecutive sessions. Don’t think that was part of any game plan. Game on.

134 for the last 3.

For how long? Fuckers want to get a grip. Life and cricket goes on.

134 for the last 3.

It’s a crippler for the fielding team when this sort of thing happens. Hopefully we will have them four down from the new ball burst.

iirc notts have not won a four day game for about two years or so?

Could be a real confidence booster if we can get a win here

317-9 (116 overs) Raine 56* Rushworth 21*

Excellent job by the lower order this, especially from 196-7, Notts getting more and more frustrated by the ball

Edit 321-9 (116.1 overs) Anyone know where Rushy gets his bats? He’s just played a forward defensive that has absolutely raced through the covers for four
