Not a good match for McKinney.

Let's hope McKinney has a better game against Notts.

Similar dismissal to his 1st innings when he got rolled away by the Stone . Today's final question is : Does Badger need to get a new travel bag ,

 

[Aidan11]

This is heading for an inevitable draw.

See, I told you we'd win this easily.

I think the fact that he wasn't in the squad to Zimbabwe gives you the answer to that.

There'll be updates on the club's social media as recipients are revealed.

 

[Aidan11]

I'm interested to see who gets in this year.

This time next week Rodders…

Excited for it now, even if I am concerned about our preparation for the first week. It’s not ideal that Bedingham won’t be here, or Doggett, it seems a bit half ****ed from management if I’m being honest that this is being allowed to happen and further to this, the team selection for the university game was a bit puzzling. Where were

I did wonder if the club would look to arrange a two day friendly against a county side to allow the starters some time in the middle in English conditions but unless it’s happening over the weekend they probably won’t have the time to make it happen.

Genuinely have no idea which bowlers are fit and available for next week, Raine and Potts to share the new ball? Is Potter even with us? Where are Hogg, Coughlin and Carse? I predicted last April that Killeen would make his first class debut in 2024, but with hindsight he clearly wasn’t ready, his performances in pre-season have no doubt pushed his chances forward a considerable amount - Trent Bridge may even be the perfect venue for his style - but Nottinghamshire will be a much stiffer test than the two teams he’s bowled at ths far. I suspect the team makeup will see 3 frontline seamers for the most part, Rhodes could be a very handy Swiss Army knife type of fourth seamer. I think Campbell sees Parkinson as an ever present.

I’m very excited about 2025 for Durham, but I’ve got so many more questions than answers going into it. Especially the form of Robinson, which seemed to drop off a cliff last summer.

 

[Aidan11]

Got a feeling there's a few injuries in the bowling dept. so my guess for the starting XI is this...

Lees
McKinney
Rhodes
Gay
Ackerman
Robinson
Raine
Killeen
Potts
Minto
Parkinson

Clarky may come in instead of a seamer, especially if Potts isnt available. I would like to see Killeen given a go. Looks a different bowler from when he came on the scene two years ago.

 

[Durham Fan]

Any idea when they will unveil the CC and One Day shirts?

I watched a lot of the Australia A vs India A games during the BGT and he was the pick of the bowlers.

If Potts not available I would add Young Stanley to your side
