were you Marty's teacher at school, WL, or did I misunderstand?

[Durhamfootman]

Carse reverting to type with no balls and wides creeping back in. Pity... he's been much better tonight

[Durhamfootman]

Carse 1-23 off his 4

No need to bowl Coughlin again, surely

[Durhamfootman]

come on Matty, lad

keeps missing his yorkers.... keeps getting creamed

missed 3 consecutive yorkers. 2 full tosses and one too wide

[Durhamfootman]

another full toss, but he's got away with the last 2

short ball and wicket... caught on the rope

[Durhamfootman]

score is creeping up

it took foreve for Leics to get 100 on the board

2 overs later and they are on 121

chance to get 140 maybe even 150 which would be poor work from us at the end

[Durhamfootman]

better over from Gandalf the Grey

126-7 with one over left

[Durhamfootman]

misfield from Coughlin with a run out opportunity on

[Durhamfootman]

Matty cleaning them up here... 2 more wickets in 4 balls

got the yorker right that time

[Durhamfootman]

131 the target

my advice would be to keep the ball on the ground.

Potts missed catching a skier because the ball pretty much blew back towards the batsman, then Dearden got out to a gentle ramp as the ball sailed in the wind to the boundary rider

Potts 3-19
Gandalf 0-28
Steel 1-28 off 3

Coughlin only bowled the one.... 1-11

[Durhamfootman]

I still remember sitting with the Capt last year as Durham failed to chase down 117 against Worcester

a horrifying experience as we collapsed from 79-1 after about 7 or 8 overs to 114 and a 3 run defeat. I think we batted the overs out too

so this isn't a formality

[Durhamfootman]

brilliant start from Clark 20 off 6

a wide then 3 half volleys creamed to the boundary and a short ball hooked into the stand

21-0 off 1

[Durhamfootman]

15 off that over too

we're going like a train, but Leics are serving up balls in the slot, or length with a bit of width

[Durhamfootman]

5 only

first ball of the 3rd over went for 4 as well

[Durhamfootman]

might have to sign Clark up for strictly come dancing after that lbw

did himself there, I fancy

35 off 14 balls

47-1
