Ahh forgot about Bedders.
Although how did we play him Bas and Ajaz in the CC.
As he's decided to put his hat in the ring for SA surely he is an overseas now.

Bas is not overseas apparently got on the last boat to county cricket before the EU passport loophole was closed by brexit.

How they going to find time to play in T20 with the Ireland test next week and then the Ashes a few weeks later.
Ben isn't fit and Wood needs wrapped up in cotton wool.
Also the two aren't mutually exclusive, if the ECB let us use our international players in the odd game then great, still need overseas for the remaining games.
We'd no doubt not be signing Parnell if Potts wasn't involved with England and Carse wasn't missing the whole competition.

Parnell confirmed
You must be logged on to see media items
Would more likely get ppl watching though
Parnell is a bit like Tye, unexciting but will hopefully do a job
Yeah it was never likely but it would still be my preference. Local kids seldom get the chance to see them play for durham. England scheduling hasn't helped but the games we have during half term would have been ideal

Spot of fortune then. Potentially a real gem there.
Shame were without him for the whole blast and next two CC games at least.
Potentially 3 on the CC front, assuming Netherlands get through first stage.
Last games are 6th-9th July and Gloucs at home is 10th

A combination of injuries and England duties have made this necessary as sadly from what I've seen of the 2nds T20 home games this season, none of our young pace bowlers have done anything to catch the eye and stake a claim in the Blast.

Aye apart from when he won England the World Cup
Fair point this, you’ll know more than most
I guess talented players improve the more they are tested mind

Well it's well know I'm not fussed about the T20 but an external coming in for me protects our bowlers ever so slightly, so for me it's a win win.

Neither will play for Durham this season, which is actually quite rare
World Cup after the summer. They’ll have their feet up
We don’t pay their wages in the slightest

You know fine well players can still have good games even if they aren't overall it's like saying shit player can't score, stokes also lost us a final if you want to play that game
@hudson88 like all you want look at his record

Averages 24.77 with the bat, SR of 133.
Averages 30 with the ball, economy of 8.4
“Isn’t very good” - Haway mate!
Generally I would agree but come a key game like a final he would be first name on the teamsheet and will be man of the match
I guess he has quite a high octane game so probably goes through the motions in a lot of 20/20 games

21 with bat 32 with ball only one fifty
He was he's won us a final and lost us a final
