Durham County Cricket Club

Bedingham dropped on 29 with the score 124-2, a regulation chance to the keeper too.

Bedingham dropped for a second time (on 30), by first slip, another fairly straightforward chance.

These commentators are doing my head in like. Those who have seen my performances on the Politics subforum of the other place will know I’m as inclusive as they come, but why do we have to have two posh southerners on our stream?

Knowing Durham they have probably decided to get these uni students on comms in than go with the BBC version or their own full-timer because it's the cheap option

Just catching up as I've been out cutting the grass.

Good to see this pair are still in.

 

[Aidan11]

Damn. Beddingham out.

We discussed it last season and I can’t see how this version is better value than the BBC rights - unless the commentators are doing it for free

 

[brandon]

Damn. Beddingham out.

Looked as if it hit him outside the line, but either way, it’s another poor dismissal.

 

[Aidan11]

Another failure for Robinson.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Robinson's woes continue Part 72.

 

[brandon]

Best career bowling figures for Booth, who had an average of 42 before this game

But yes, Robinson is atleast two places too high in the order. It’s going to be another below par batting performance.

Tea:

228-4 (64 overs). McKinney 88*, Ackermann 17*.

Durham are in a good position, but I can’t help feeling that it should’ve been better, both wickets to fall in that session were soft dismissals on what looks a very good pitch for batting.

Big session coming up if we are to hammer home our advantage, new ball due in 16 overs, need to close tonight with plenty of power to add.

 

[The Red Telephone]

This is desperate stuff from Durham against a very mediocre bowling attack.

 

[The Red Telephone]

234-7

The best laid plans etc etc

 

[Aidan11]

WTF?

This is embarrassing. Collapsing again.

 

[Durham Fan]

Weak as piss.

 

[Aidan11]

Nice 100 from McKinney. Not sure about letting Potts have most of the strike though while he was in the late 90s.

That could have backfired badly.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Well done Mckinney -he's applied himself well unlike some of our batsmen.

Wasn’t a case of letting him, Potts kept taking singles off the last ball.

Absolutely pathetic from Durham after Tea, it’s a good job McKinney has stood firm all day but through almost 5 days of Championship cricket this season we’re looking like relegation fodder. Warwickshire have basically taken lads of the street to makeup their bowling attack for this game and they’re putting us to the sword. This is a 400-450 pitch and we’re going to be about 150 short. An absolute joke this from Durham.

 

[Aidan11]

McKinney's highest FC score now. Previously 121.
