U19 12th Man
Disappointing day for Durham, distinctly second best today and perhaps on reflection, shows that yesterday wasn’t so great for us either.
I’ve watched most of it on a delay and have been flicking forward a lot, so can’t really assess it as definitively as yesterday - but it seems like the pitch is very good for batting and we’re about 80-100 runs short of par. Some credit should be given to our lads though, it would’ve been easy to have let it slide and gifted a considerable advantage going into day three, but with the two late strikes and a new ball tomorrow morning the lads have a genuine opportunity to end the first innings with parity.
The first session tomorrow has to be ours.
