[Durhamfootman]

put to the sword by Dom 'Boycott' Sibley

oh the ignominy

[Durhamfootman]

wickets are falling now, but it's far too little, far too late

[Durhamfootman]

and there it is

5 wicket defeat with 2 overs unused

[Durhamfootman]

a not unexpected result

[captaincolly]

Did a little bit better than I expected and but predicable in the end.
All that remains now is to secure first division status, one more win should do it- can't see it happening against Surrey!

Will you get Potts back?
He could have played last night.

I thought the England test players would be available for the QF's buy was wrong.
Might have him for the Lancs game next week because he's not playing the last test.

Chemar Holder- who I hadn't heard of - has signed for the rest of the season. Looks as if he has played a test and ODI for the West Indies.
He'll probably get injured if our luck with overseas bowlers doesn't change.

[Durhamfootman]

just spotted an interview with him. Sounds similar to that odd signing last year of the guy who played 1 game and whose name I forget, who came out of a club cricket side.

Chemar Holder was playing club cricket in Derby, met up and trained with the team ahead of the T20 QF and then got the call. Presumably he'll play on Monday, but with Potts available, Carse available, Raine and Hogg, it's hard to see where he fits in

I presume Potts is available

Potts should be available bit who can predict what the selectors will do. Carse won't be though because he's in the T20 squad.

I'd like to see Hogg play in the last 2 home games. Not sure he needs to go to the Oval though

[captaincolly]

I see Holder missed a year after having shoulder surgery!

[Durhamfootman]

He'll be lucky to walk away from game one with his body intact

[captaincolly]

He'll be lucky to walk away from game one with his body intact

My thoughts exactly!

Potts and Bedingham in the squad for tomorrow.
