Now he's a really good T20 player as we saw in the early stages of last season, so hopefully he won't get injured early like last year.

Is Lees skipper?

Durham's greatest challenge will come in the freshness of a thin squad, which won't look too dissimilar once the Blast begins next week.

Campbell acknowledges that: he is learning on the job after moving over from the associate game and has quickly realised the disparity that exists between the richest counties and the rest – his second team are playing against Alex Hales and Samit Patel today. Once the Blast starts – for which they have replaced Tristan Stubbs with Ashton Turner – they are on their travels almost constantly in a loosely termed 'North' group that takes them as far south as Northamptonshire.

Mackintosh has been selected for Scotland, but Jones hasn't, so he's available for us.

Seemingly Campbell wants McKinney involved in the T20 stuff. He says it suits his aggressive style of play
