Durham v Glamorgan (h) C.C.

[Aidan11]

Batsman probably a bit unlucky there but we should have had one in the previous over.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Blackwell looking very Milburnesque.

Somewhat bemused to see Clark not given an opportunity yet Coughlin is selected. Handful of us in the county Durham upper.
Also nice to see the opposition make the effort to travel and fulfill a fixture.

So Ravi Shastri tests positive but the game goes on. How does this square with Surrey’s refusal to play Durham last week?

God knows. I think a lot of it last week boiled down to a lack of desire/attitude to fulfill the fixture. Easier and cheaper to call it off.

This is like one of those end of season games from the pre Two Division days - while not exactly going through the motions (yet) it's what you could call 'low key'.

 

[Aidan11]

Is Pratt not playing LBWs ?

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Thank fuck this is on, can't be arsed with India . Welsh accents really suit Cricket Commentary

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Is Pratt not playing LBWs ?

Seems not. I'm trying hard today not to complain about umpiring but it's proving a challenge. Standard is appalling this season

Just wait until we bat then you'll see!

Rushy gets Rutherford.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Rushworth strikes 63-2

very loose drive from Rutherford.

Pratt is nothing short of a disgrace.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

63-3

Selman C Coughlin B Raine 15

Don Robson Shouter finding his voice after 2 quick wickets.

Don Robson Shouter finding his voice after 2 quick wickets.

Aye he's a lovely lad, met them both last week at Spennymoor and been talking to his dad about a few things, both spot on. He's in full voice today mind

BCCI: "The remaining members of the Team India contingent underwent two Lateral Flow Tests – one last night and another this morning. The members upon returning negative COVID reports were allowed to proceed for Day 4 of the ongoing fourth Test at The Oval." - sort of proves the point what we've said.... Attitude towards last week was piss poor, easier to call it off

 

[Mr Redknapp]

73-4
Rushworth gets his 3rd.

 

[chopsfc007]

Borthwicks cousin on twelfth man duty I think

 

[Parkside]

Blackwell looking very Milburnesque.

And Pratt acting very prattish.

 

[Twisted]

They're hastily reinstalling the seats in the Co Durham Upper ahead of your arrival.

I've parked meself. Up here due to overdressing for such nice weather

Its like Brewsters millions, you'd couldnt imagine what more FTECB could do to drive County supporters away from county cricket. No idea if it feels so blatant to other counties as us like

 

[Parkside]

And Pratt gets his finger out.
