Well apparently Hampshire have put down 3 catches so far this morning
DWTA, I think it's a brilliant effort.This is crap Hampshire
Only our batting line up performs weakly, but they all have potential. Our bowling has been amongst the best in the division all season despite having no superstars. If we manage to score more than you tomorrow then you should be embarrased.Another ****house performance against abject mediocrity finishes off Durham's season aptly. A couple of decent runs but not enough consistency.
Always been impressed by Coetzer. Has he left for good? Be silly to let him go as di Ventuo can't go on forever and Stoneman and Smith are minor.Two ex-Durham players doing nicely elsewhere... Coetzer making 84 and Will Gidman taking 4-41 so far to take his season tally to 50, just needs 23 runs to get the 1000 runs to go with it.
Presumably the high profiled Kolpak cricketers de Wet and Myburgh won’t be kept on. They haven’t done crap or been seen since the start of the summer. Cork is apparently leaving but it might be worth while bringing back David Balcombe, especially as he seems to like division 2 cricket. Balcombe has taken 30 wickets for Kent in 5 county games, including four five-wicket hauls. Impressive.Well that is us down, is disappointing after being in this division for a pretty long time now but has been coming for years really. A couple of Imran Tahir months in 2008 aside we have been pretty poor in four day cricket since Warne left which is not really good enough when you consider the amount of resources we have,
Don't think this is the worst thing in the world though, would like to see the squad trimmed down somewhat (Lumb already gone) and hope that our young players can come on and really perform well in division two, a year winning games and hopefully getting promotion could do them an awful lot of good.
Christ.
