Even by our standards this is a bad start!

Durham in t20 mode. Bowling is absolute fodder.

[CrawlingFox]

34 off Salisbury's 3 overs. Glad we gave him a 3 year deal.

We seem to love a medium pace right arm dobber - Salisbury, Barnes, Davis, etc. 

[Silebyfox_89]

100 in 17 overs 🙈

[Tommy Fresh]

This is terrible

Griffiths, Evans and Sakande last season too.

 

Scriven and maybe Finan at times perhaps a little better than all of these but my word we'll miss Wright.

[Lionator]

What’s the county championship record runs in the first session?

[Bordersfox]

Apologies if posted before, did have a quick gander back and couldn't see it had.  Doesn't particularly say anything we didn't know.

It’s not as good as that

Absolutely baffling! And we wouldn’t even stretch to a 2 year contract offer to Wrighty

Mind boggling. Had about one good pace bowler in the last four seasons and manage to lose him.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Surely Walker, Hull and Finnan would of been a better option, at least they would provide variation. 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Better session for us.

Is Hull injured? Disappeared off the face of the earth since his bowling display away at Yorkshire in the T20. 

[CrawlingFox]

I think Hull is in the promising but still very raw phase so probably still going to be used sparingly for now.

[Sunbury Fox]

After a promising 2nd session, this has been a chastening final session. Look like we'll not take another wicket if we bowl for a week. 

[Kinowe Soorie]

Massive first innings total for Durham, they’ll bowl us out twice

Back to last season when if we avoid losing by an innings it's as good as you can hope for.

[Lako42]

Shite

[Ian Nacho]

Terrible first session. 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

High scoring draw or set up a game on Wednesday.

Looking more likely we'll be following on. 

[CosbehFox]

Decent recovery 

[Lionator]

850 runs in two days is some going. Pitch must be a runway. 

[LBTufty]

Using a Kookaburra ball for the first time in two rounds of the CC, may also have something to do with it.
