Durham Match Thread 2018

Colly looks as if he's limping. Think he might have hurt himself charging for the 3rd run from the last ball misfield. If hr can't bowl it might be a problem.

[captaincolly]

Good start. Levi out cheaply and Duckett gone for 13.
And as I type a third wicket - Cobb.
18-3.

[captaincolly]

Colly bowling so must be ok.

[captaincolly]

We've seen some disasters over the years but 35-4 and 134 needed from 11. Surely there won't be any nasty twists here.

[captaincolly]

Although there might be if Pringle bowls - 13 off his over!

[captaincolly]

65-6 and Pringle back on to jeers from the crowd! No need really and this should be a chance for him to bowl under no pressure.

[captaincolly]

He has a wicket! 67/7.

[captaincolly]

A few lusty blows but too late now. 80 more needed from 4 overs with just 2 wickets left.

When a side is winning, t20 is easy.

When a side is losing, t20 is impossible.

A fine illustration of both there. You can begin thinking about a home QF now, rather than just a QF.

I can hardly believe it. Brilliant again from Tahir but they were almost down and out before he came on. He's blowing kisses to the crowd, great character as well as a bowler and I may have been slightly wrong thinking he was a poor signing!

Can't remember any other occasion when we've topped the division in T20.
What size gate tonight?

Looked pretty good. Pavilion full and decent crowd elsewhere.

blimey.... Durham finally discover that regular success in T20 can fill the coffers

only taken them 14 years (is it 14 years?)
