Durham County Cricket Club

[mackembhoy]

One thing I’m noticing today is that Cricinfo is far slower on updates than bet365 or Flashscores

tomorrow being the grand national , I was wondering what anyone was thinking regarding the winner ?

I’m having a look tonight at the race

The one with four legs

300 up

The one with four legs

I’ve been going wrong for years I’ll take this onboard

might go with I am Maximus who won last years national and has the top trainer and jockey combo currently

also it connects to the lad Maximus who sadly passed away a few seasons back who was a mate of mine when the smb had some quality contributors

he bought me a match ticket for the sol and I was going to take him to a t20 at CLS but he died before I had the chance

My mam picked the winner 3 years in a row just cos she liked the name.

And by picked I just mean via daft cut outs from the paper not betting.

Iirc Silver Birch and Comply or Die were two of two of them

The Mrs had silver birch and has not let me forget it

her uncle gave her a silver birch sapling to plant was the logic

my first ever bet was a horse called Well to do in the national 1972

I had a sixpence on it. My dad was annoyed as he backed something else and mine won

 

[CartyDurham]

Anyway I digress the more important matter is Durham finishing the day off not out here

And I love drissell and Raine being in partnership

314 for 7

On the subject of weather related cricketers, who could forget Gareth Breeze.

 

[CartyDurham]

Drissell on 45 coffers 3

I’m claiming it’s been a good day for Durham after being asked to bat

and I’ve done it a bloody again

Drissell goes

 

[Aidan11]

Drissell gone 5 short of 50.

Poor shot though.

Sunny ramadin. I’m struggling now

The Drizzle must have got a new bat for Christmas.

His previous FC best was 33 and he's gone past that 3 games on the trot.

Been on off watching today but a great day after being put in. Hopefully it gets harder to bat tomorrow!

 

[CartyDurham]

Still all over the day I wanted 450 but am well happy with how the game stands

notts must have thought it was a 200 to 250 pitch with installing

355 for 9 now
