    Durham will be tricky too, they have a habit of doing well against us.

    We beat them at the Ageas bowl last year (or year before) to get to finals day.

    They're a good one day team though, one of the few to beat us this season in the YB40 and top our group.

    But we're a very good T20 team. I'd be happy with Durham. Just avoid bloody Somerset.

    Saying this, if we play to our potential then we should beat whoever we draw.

    Did someone mention bumping one's own thread earlier [not you AL]..?

    I have a guaranteed system for 100% prediction success. Can you guess how I do it..? :)

    I think it will be a closer test match this time. Still fancy England to win though. Cook to get a century and maybe Prior aswell.

    It will be a good toss to lose today. Tricky call whether to bat or bowl first.
