Leicestershire v Durham

Leicestershire rock bottom with 75pts, Durham currently on 137 with a potential deduction looming.
Hopefully a better team spirit now Franklin has departed.
Terrible weather forecast for tomorrow but OK for remaining 3 days.
Suspect Maddinson will be departing prematurely for beginning of Aussie season which gives a reason to omit him tomorrow.

Great news that, I knew Bedingham would be back based on what Marty said last week on comms. Pleasantly surprised that Potts can play, I fully expected FTECB to play the ‘needs a rest’ card even though he’s been sat on his arse for over a month.

Rushy will be a big miss though. Hopefully it’s only a minor strain and he can return for the last couple of games.

Durham have won the toss and will bowl first.

Rushworth (injured), Bushnell and Trevaskis all miss out - the latter two presumably dropped, which will no doubt raise eyebrows.

Drissell, Bedingham and Potts return.

Jones
Dickson
Borthwick
Bedingham
Maddinson
Coughlin
Raine
Mackintosh
Potts
Drissell
Gibson

Inserted Leics. Drissell and Bedingham in for Trevaskis and Bushnell. Trevaskis presumably injured and Shadrach apparently undroppable.

I took it as them deciding Drissell is the better spin bowling option on a pitch that may well take turn later in the game.
 
Marty expressing surprise at Durham's poor head to head record against Leics in red ball cricket - he's obviously forgotten the 1990s when we were crushed on a regular basis by them.

Absolutely hideous first hour. I’m sure some people will try and blame the former head coach for this, but the players need to take responsibility for their own performance and this has been f*cking garbage.

Oh and this Budinger will end up making a score here, despite being possibly the ugliest looking batsman I’ve had the misfortune of seeing on telly.

17 byes already, that’s on the bowlers - they haven’t turned up today. Pathetic.
