    Anyone going to the match at the emirates riverside today? Semi final of the Royal London one day cup.

    I wanted to watch it but seemingly it hasn’t got any airtime. Bet if it was Middlesex v Kent it’d be on!!

    come on Durham

    Me and my youngest are setting off in 15 minutes to watch it. If they win he is going down to Trent Bridge for the final on Thursday, but I will have to miss it as I am off to York races for the first 3 days.

    Why the **** is the final on a Thursday? They opposed to having a crowd or something...?

    If it was on any other day I would have attended. Mams 91st Birthday celebrations come first which is also why I’m not travelling to Burton tonight.

    That partnership might have won this game for Surrey. Good bowling conditions in Durham today. I think 300 could be a big score on this wicket.

    Enjoyed that, good bowling from the 2 spinners and solid batting from the top 5, including Bancroft.
    All we need now is 3 points tonight and will be a great day (and hopefully I don't lose my money over the next 3 days ) ⚽️

    Fantastic! Such a shame I’m at work on Thursday, Nottingham is only up the road from me. It’s on Sky for anyone interested.

    Wish I could go but circumstances are stopping me. I will be following the game though.
