[Durhamfootman]

Stokes back on

88-4 after 13

Stokes, Smith and Tahir all have 2 overs left... Weighell has been doing good death over stuff, so no need to offer Rimmer and McCarthy up to Worcs as sacrificial lambs

or am I being unsporting again?

Stokes strikes

[captaincolly]

I see Luke Wood is in their side, is he on loan or did he move?

Think it's a loan.
Cox gone now. 91/6 with 6 overs left.

[Durhamfootman]

and follows it up with Cox

3-11 off 3, for the boy wonder

Get Tahir on quick!

Think it's a loan.

perhaps Notts are clearing the decks for the signing of Ben Raine?

[Durhamfootman]

who is on 51 off 30

[st_brendy]

What's this, a fourth straight match for you guys with just a 6 man attack? Proof is in the pudding.

Great to see that you might just be cracking this. Top stuff.

Probably!

Surrey going mental

bringing the 100 up at the end of the 7th

no-one will be surprised to find that neither Stonemercenary nor Borthdick are involved in any way

or am I being unsporting again?

well, clearly I am, because we felt the need to bring Rimmer back on and concede another 9 at a time when Worcs can't score

hey ho

[Durhamfootman]

Tahir strikes 7 down for 106

surely we can't let them off this hook

can't we?

Just what I was thinking! There's always a feeling it will go horribly wrong.

Worcs are our 3rd good team in a row, so this is looking reasonably hopeful

I say that knowing that we can always find ways to throw a match away

[Durhamfootman]

Jimmy the W and the boy wonder to finish off the last 3 overs

[Durhamfootman]

I'm never confident when we are chasing

(I'm never confident at all, tbh)

but we do at least have the boy wonder coming in high up the order, which has to be a bonus, surely

Weighell gets his man 115-8

[captaincolly]

Some poor fielding- must be a damp outfield. Quite a few fumbles.
Stokes 4 first ball back.
