100 for Ackermann!

[Durhamfootman]

oh me of little faith

I switched on expecting it to be all over by now

[Durhamfootman]

it wouldn't be Durham without losing 2 wickets in 3 balls whilst on the final straight

[Durhamfootman]

looks like we might fall over the line 7 needed, 4 overs, 4 wickets left

[Durhamfootman]

still..... it will be very welcome, because it's been a week to forget

[Durhamfootman]

a very un-Borthwick-like innings. 42 off 36 balls

[Durhamfootman]

even the win won't move us up the table, because the last 2 defeats have hammered our NRR

and we have fallen over the line..... well done boys, I gave us no hope chasing 261

interesting decision to move Lees down to 3

[captaincolly]

Just threatened to get the nerves jangling. 3 senior batters all came to the fore and then a few boundaries at the end from de Leede. Although there were still a few close shaves towards the end.

Match abandoned at Middlesex.

I didn't realise that it was on today

or off, to be more precise

Too far south to play cricket as Martin Emmerson has no doubt said!

[captaincolly]

Ackermann carrying the batting again at South Northumberland. Wagner just out for a handy 35. 245/8 with just under a couple of overs to go.

[captaincolly]

257 all out. Ackermann run out for 96 in the last over.
Doesn't feel like nearly enough but don't know how conditions are.

Watching a bit on YouTube and the pitch does seem to be assisting the bowlers so our score might he better than I thought.
