150 up for Bedders

Burnham could have retired hurt, of course..... and returned tomorrow, rather than trying to soldier on

He played a straight forward defensive to Critchley the ball before and had to use his bat as a crutch to straighten up, so he was never going to be able to turn and ground his bat once the ball beat him

Would have been sensible to go off. Very unfortunate nonetheless because if he could have made a century it'd have done him the world of good.

1755

only 2 overs left to bowl. Looks good for 96 overs and a 6pm finish..... just shows that it can be done, even with all the sanitiser breaks

300 is up and the 3rd batting point to go with it

[Durhamfootman]

and there we have it

307-4 and one minute past 6

been a better day than I thought it would be at about 11.15

170 not out for Bedders, who might very well be the leading run scorer in the country atm

Could well be. An excellent signing.

David Hopps says he has overtaken Adam Lyth as the leading run scorer. Apparently he should have been run out on 1 after a mix up with Lees but was saved by poor fielding. Always have a feeling a run out is on the cards when Lees is batting- his one flaw.
Hopps also says Burnham has a back spasm- probably just as well Nigel isn't around to treat it!

You can almost guarantee that if Lees is in for any length of time there will be a run out or a near one
Yes,no,sorry school.

Yep! It's a real problem for him ...or his partner!

Reece has a full double teapot on. Spanked for four by Bedders, then he beats the edge, then he finds the edge but put down in the slips

He's not happy!

4 an over required if we want to pick up a 4th batting point

Watching a bit of the stream. Pretty tight bowling so if wickets are going to be hard to take I think I'd prioritise a huge first innings score over a bonus point...so they'll probably miss out on the point and then collapse!

[Durhamfootman]

we don't appear to be interested in it. Closing in on a century partnership

Yeah, no sense of urgency.

[Durhamfootman]

3rd century partnership in a row

[captaincolly]

3rd century partnership in a row

I wonder when we last did that!
I see Weighell is 18 not out for Glamorgan.

Eckersley given out lbw

looked a very long way down the track, in truth
