hey up

Leics are trying the old 'this ball doesn't work, umps' trick that we tried last week.

it worked for us, lets hope it doesn't work for them

ball has been changed

[Durhamfootman]

Hasn't worked

Bedders moves to 75 with a big thump over Parkinson's head for 6

150 is up

[Durhamfootman]

as is the 150 partnership

[Durhamfootman]

Bedders has nicked off to 2nd slip chasing a wide one for 96

that's annoying. I think his eyes lit up

score is 176-3, which makes me wonder if a batting point is now too far away, given that one of our only two batsmen is now out and we are into our tail

[Durhamfootman]

and to add insult to Bedinghams injury, the covers are now on

A shame he couldn't get to the century.

lapse in concentration

he had spent much of the first part of his innings looking uncomfortable with anything pitched outside off, but it looked as though he'd worked his way through that. Just a rush of blood with 3 figures one shot away

Most ot the rest of them probably won't reach 3 figures as a cumulative seaskn total!

The collapse game is resuming at 4.45.

Poor weather must have returned. Stumps at 176/3. A triumph compared to the previous shambolic efforts.

[Durhamfootman]

if it was possible, I'd frame 176-3

[The Professor]

Watched a fair bit of your game around lunchtime......Bedingham is very easy on the eye.

I don't think I knew he was a Saffer though.

[Durhamfootman]

Has a UK passport, Prof.

[Durhamfootman]

this is a tricky start to day 2

wait for the rain to stop, face 5 balls and off again. Back out, 10 balls, off again

this will test the batsmen's concentration

[Durhamfootman]

Umpires are putting the stumps back in, so we must be about to resume.... again
