CC : Warwickshire v Durham



When a team uses 8 bowlers, you know it’s pretty shambolic. Pretty sure their wicket keeper (Burgess) bowled

Strange tactics from Warwickshire, batted us out of the game in terms of winning but did the same to themselves.

Totally agree hence I was happy on Saturday after day two. Had every faith they would bat it out and an absolutely embarrassing pitch

Just watched the 10 minute highlights and taken everything into account cracking innings from Potts.
Our late middle order looks very capable with the likes of Potts Raine Carse and Coughlin. Now just got to take a few wickets.

Undefeated so far, can't grumble at your effort for the cause.

As mentioned above, maybe we declared.

Even if we didn’t, and they were pretending it was 5 o’clock, it would still have to be mutual, so we must’ve agreed to it. Not them being grumpy at all.

I think that’s a decent draw, and I don’t agree necessarily that Warwickshire’s tactics were negative. I’d say we were more likely to lose than not overnight. That was a good rearguard on the fourth day. It’s a creditable eight extra points. I don’t think a contrived chase would have been the right option for them after they were so dominant on days one and two.

Aye.

I think you have to be prepared to lose to win on placid pitches, very negative from Warwickshire

It was up to Warwickshire to force the game and once they in my opinion got arrogant, Durham only had one option and on the whole we dealt with it relatively comfortably. It's a shame a game couldn't be made of it but Durham did what they had to.

More to do with the ball than the pitch I reckon. When every game in the championship is drawn and the one common denominator is the ball it says a lot. Although that short boundary just made the whole game look a bit of a farce
