I was half jokingly going to suggest following Yorkshire's Twitter account for updates but that's what the Durham Twitter actually tells us to do!!

60/2 at Lunch with Lees and Burnham out...and Steel retired hurt after getting hit on the head! Painful no doubt but better than a broken finger.

No problem with that-at least they're grafting.Won't meet an attack like that in the 2nd division.

Yep. 2 down in the first session would be great at the Riverside.

seems the 5th wicket fell at just after 2pm......... which is odd, given that it's still only 12.30

even time itself is altered in the Twaddleverse, it would appear

Two day game so I guess each team will bat for a day regardless of how many wickets are lost. If that's the case we might find out tomorrow who is captaining.

If Steel is captain ( and he may not be ) the curse has struck because that game last year where he stood in for Colly started with him getting a whack on the arm and unable to field and now today a whack on the head and retired hurt!

90 overs each team so we might well have a few innings :hide

181/5 at tea. Raine and Pringle with a partnership of 92. They must have been scoring quickly.
Usually all out shortly after lunch so things are looking up!

276/7. Fine start by Raine- 71 against a quality attack.
There's never been such times!
