Might have to do with the green 78 bus to Park Lane

i thought we showed some great power hitting tonight. that was an awkward starter down there and we did pretty well in all departments tonight

I think Edgbaston on Sunday will be a good gauge of where we are but if we can win 2 out if these 3 matches on the road that would be a good start.

Is that a new team? Probably play up Salisbury way

They aren't the best either big chance

Agreed, not sure who their overseas are but it’s a 50/50 game imo. As @wayne entwhistle no9 said, the bears will be a big test come Sunday , so if we can win tomorrow a loss could be ok.

maybe a rained off anarl so we get 5 points out of six after winning tomorrow

Encouraging for coughlin

Big player for us with Potts out

 

[gowlcra]

Excellent win. Played the game tactically well

 

[smoker]

Great performance, especially from Coughlin. Raine and Borthwick bowled really nicely too. I thought our bowling was the difference between the teams.

Captaincy decisions right on point from Turner. I know Leicestershire are shite but you couldn't ask for a more commanding performance.

 

[The Rat]

Get some easy wins in early when form settles

 

[brandon]

Good to start the tournament with a win but I doubt there is a team in the division anywhere near as bad as the Foxes.

Northants might have something to say about that

 

[The Rat]

just my view, even though he played well tonight, but they need to pick a young lad instead of Ned

there is a spot there

Ollie Robinson is 23. Not young enough for you?

I suspect Tom Mackintosh isn't ready for the first team. He's only 18 and made 3, 5 and 2 in the second xi warm ups.

Ned aint keeping wicket, Jonny Bushnell, get him in.

That wasn't exactly a high standard of cricket all round.

Aye I watched all the 1st innings and it was poor like if I am honest.

so how come the england players from yorkshire played this week, can also play tonight and sunday, yet potts, stokes and lees are nowhere to be seen for durham?

Same reason they can be institutionally racist and not get relegated or face a points deduction: Cricket has an unwritten pecking order.

And why have our club not communicated with the public as to why our England players have not been involved. Surely s quick tweet would do as to their non availability.

They keep sending me emails about these three promising players that are due to appear shortly - Adams, Ross and Buble.

no too surprised about potts, i'm happy for him to be rested a bit. stokes was playing t20 cricket in our county matches so no reason why he shouldn't continue, and his bowling was pretty poor so a few more competitive overs probably would have helped. as for lees i don't see any reason he couldn't play.

Spot on exactly how I feel about them individually. I can see no reason why Lees doesn't play especially unless it's his decision.
