Colly gone... 6 only off the penultimate over which included a wide

213-5

OFFS...... 2 in 2 again.... same batsmen

OFFS...... 2 in 2 again.... same batsmen

Typical!

[Durhamfootman]

both clean bowled, presumably trying to hit it out of the park

and so we end up finishing the last couple of overs scratching about again

still..... 220 is a good score and the fact that I wanted even more is entirely a reflection on our bowling prowess

same part of the game too.... both set and looking to turn the screw.

My thoughts exactly. Trying to remember how many we got last year in that game ( against Worcs?) where Colly got a hundred and we never remotely looked like defending them. Of course Tahir wasn't there then.

[Durhamfootman]

their spinners and medium pacers went at about 10 an over. We have seamers who are quite capable of going for twice as many as that

201 was the target in that game and we lost by 8 wickets with almost 2 overs remaining.

Pollock out for 0!

was that the one where Clarke went berserk and flayed us to all parts?

Only Durham could have a game where the oldest player to get a T20 century gets overshadowed by someone from the opposition in a match that ends in a massive defeat.
