Don’t want to agree, but your right.
Crowd very quiet, players look as though they are just going through the motions.
Shame.

Potts really suffered and has been off since he bowled his 4th over and I don’t think he’s coming back

they made his overs up now though.
 
No way will we chase a competitive total as we aren't clever enough to just rotate the strike like SA. We'll just try and slog it and hole out.
 
From BBC blog “Fair play to Durham - it sounds like they are doing everything in their power to try and help the spectators deal with his heat.

You've got to feel for the fans. Attending an England game isn't cheap these days and a lot of them will have been looking forward to this day for many months and I can't imagine this is the experience they had in mind.”

How would Pottsy cope in Sri Lanka, India, South Africa, Australia and West India?
All warmer climates than here. Doesn’t look good for young Pottsy when England tour.
 
Be interesting hearing from the players post match on the on field conditions

See bairstow is off currently . Red haired lad must be really feeling it
