Yes he looks a good find. Thought we bowled very well all day and were unlucky not to take more wickets.

Been out today so missed his innings, but further adds to question what planet have the South African selectors been on for the last 3 years.
To think they nearly let as talented of a player end up English is mental.

Five 50s in a row in FC cricket for Ollie Robinson. 4 for Durham in 4 innings to start his season. Other was for the Lions in India.
He's a very talented lad. Selfishly hope England ignore him for this summer and select Baristow.

I hope so too. Can well do without that confusion if the Sussex bowler also gets selected.

@SillyCowCorner1 any Ollie Robinsons knocking on the door for Windies, or any Robinsons at all.
Robinson b Robinson C Robinson would be an interesting one.

Unfortunately, not any Robinsons. Most of the Jamaican players have Irish surnames though.

Then falling on his arse in the comedy dismissal of the round.

Really like what I've seen of him so far. Played on some pretty flat pitches (and 2 with the Kookaburra) and his effort levels have been superb. Hopefully, he can clean up the Gloucs tail this morning.
Much better than Robinson in this match who unsurprisingly has looked rusty.

Would love for the series coming up being a cracker. Could you carry an attack of Joseph x2, Roach and Seales?
Duckett, Crawley, Pope and Root haven't had a good start to their season. I'm sure they'd not be salivating at facing that attack.

I see Kent have Matt Parkinson as a number 8 
Do we have a Kent fan on here, what's happened there to go up against Surrey with a genuine 11 at 8.
Compton I see came in at 6 as well so interesting to know why on that front too.

Essex are looking favourites for the title at this stage, not least because their attack seems to be significantly stronger than anyone else. Surrey, otoh, are once again struggling to finish off the lower order. I think that Essex would have done the necessary by now. Ditto in Surrey's previous match when they weren't able to finish off Somerset.

Depends on the possible point deduction for Essex.
Was talk of Essex losing all the 16 they gained for the win, which if so would put them behind Surrey(when Surrey inevitably take these final 4 Kent wickets with the new ball)
They set precedent when deducting 10 points from Durham in 2022 for same offence.
Durham only picked up 12 points in that game. Took 3 weeks for the ruling on our offence, so imagine Essex will find out in the next week.

Siddle replaces the injured Scott Boland for Durham

Quite an achievement for Boland to be even worse in England in 2024 than he was in 2023. They should really take away his passport, maybe not even let him out of Melbourne.
