maybe he'll be brilliant in the 50 over cup

I have a feeling he might be...so that probably means he'll be hopeless!

[westoelad]

Coggers limped off after his final spell. Looks knackered again.

[Durhamfootman]

that doesn't sound good. Lets hope it was just cramp or stiffness

[westoelad]

Pretty certain he's got a 16.4 contract somewhere.

[Durhamfootman]

who.... de Loose?

[westoelad]

who.... de Loose?

Yes,DeLeede,Carse and Potts are all signed up for the Northern Batterychargers.

[Durhamfootman]

I'll bet they regret signing BdL now

[Durhamfootman]

3 overs to go and 46 needed. Rain delay

my guess is that we are behind on DL

[Durhamfootman]

and there it is.... just come up

lost by 7 runs on DLS and we lost Lees to the last ball before they were taken off and I imagine it didn't just start while Lees was walking off, so we would have won if the umpires hadn't waited until a wicket fell

feels like a stitch up to me

I might be wrong but think we were just behind the DLS as the rain started so he had to try and get a boundary. Not certain of that though.
Did a lot better than I thought we would, too many weaknesses to make a good T20 team but we're not as far off the pace as usual. Not sure Glover adds much, Luke Robinson a better bet imo

[captaincolly]

Probably a situation where whoever lost could consider themselves unlucky but very Durham-esque to have a bad bowling powerplay despite taking 2 wickets in the first over!

[Durhamfootman]

no apparently you are right. Seemingly even a six off that last ball would not have prevented a Lancs win

[Durhamfootman]

no deLoose to concede 30 off 2, so Glover stepped into the breach and went for 24 off 2 instead

Annoying although Lancs probably would have been favourites had it gone the distance- maybe we'd have won if the rain arrived an over earlier.

And 39 off 3!
