LVCC - Durham v Sussex

Not open for further replies.
Disappointed Arshad isnt involved.

No need to have a middle order batsman coming in at 7 then Mustard 8 then 2 allrounders below him.

I'd have gone;

Stoneman; Jennings; Borthwick; Richardson; Stokes; Colly; Mustard; Hastings; Arshad; Coughlin; Rushy

But heyho, they may feel there is only so much RFM you need in a side. A frontline spinner would have balanced that side really nicely.

Buckley is in the squad, although seeing how he was allowed to play for Blaydon yesterday I think it's unlikely they are seriously thinking of playing him today, but you never know, the wicket is at the bottom half of the square today so might be a turner?
 

Watching Arshad on Friday he is clearly not fit. Rumour is that he is not training midweek and has not played for his club side, Sunderland, this season.
If he is fit and not in squad for today then why did he not play for Sunderland yesterday ?
Due to injuries to other bowlers and wanting to rest(protect) Rushworth it appears Arshad is the sacrificial lamb !

Also, just noticed, Arshad did not play for the seconds last week ?
 
Durham won the toss and bat. Same team as last week. Anyon misses out for them but Joyce plays.

Hoping for a Middlesex Day 1.

Magoffin opening up from the Finchale End. Expect him to be dangerous, he usually takes wickets against us (and everyone for that matter).

Lewis Hatchett from the Lumley End.

Jennings gone. 6-1. Another failure.

23-2. Borthwick out.

Stoneman strike rate of 28 :eek:. He's usually on 60 by now :lol:

30-3. f***ing shit. Time for Stokes to start showing some ability. Great decision to bat first :rolleyes:.
 
Lancashire 29-1 v Northants. The way things are in the table we could probably do with a Northants win so Lancashire lose ground on us.
 
nobody is but your negative all the time

Nah I'm not like.

Lancs 33-3.

Rocky gets his first boundary in the 16th over. 43-3.

48-3, the current partnership (18) is the highest of the match so far. Hopefully they can make 118. :)

Nice and positive, just for you chop.

Jon Lewis replaces Magoffin at the Finchale End.
