Durham going very well after being put in to bat against Notts - 161/0

 

Great knock from McKinney. One to watch.

 

200 up for England. 5 down

 

Durham going well.... Two things I miss about not living in the NE....SAFC and DCCC

 

250 up for England. 6 down

 

Smith lad. Superb

 

Its been a cracking innings so far. Atkinson looks decent on 20

 

I may edit this

 

Hopefully a 120+ lead and we can get into these.

 

Just about bang on with the first innings lead.

Nice start from the bowlers!

 

I’d be shocked if this wasn’t done today.

 

Effectively 4 down and 46 behind. A lot riding on this partnership

 

Just got back in. Surprised to see them still 4 down, must’ve fought back well

 

I'm guessing your shocked at this moment in time

 

Not much surprises me these days but aye

 

Just been on SSN that Mark Wood won't be on the field today. Seems like he's broken down again

 

Injured his right thigh whilst bowling yesterday. At least we went in with a 5 man attack so we have plenty of cover. Expect him to miss the next 2 tests now

 

A bowler down then.

 

Wood's replacement for the rest of the series had been announced
