Makes you wonder why they asked Root to open for the seconds, to then play him down the order on his return to the first team.

One of the old boys was asking him that at the Leicestershire match. He gave a non committal ' i can't see past tomorrow at the moment ' . Would be great to see him stay on. He mentioned in the press that it was more about letting his missus concentrate on her career rather than any tiredness with the game. Hopefully he'll annoy the missus and kids early next season and they'll be happy to get rid of him for a couple of months !!
72-4 Labuschagne adding just one run tinhis overnight score in nearly an hour at the crease. He looks in no kind of form.
156/5 at lunch. Carlson looking in really good nick. We could do with him and Cooke hanging around for a good while yet though.
Stokes bowling these days looks very ordinary.
163/7. Cooke gone too. Really disappointing batting today.
Something to cheer you up following Glum’s batting today

Watch it all but the funny bit is from approx 5 mins :hehe:
Well I didn't expect this.
This has been an excellent fightback. Root and Neser really doing well
Bloody excellent middle order performance, well done lads:thumbup:
It’s a nice problem to have when you consider our batting in recent seasons, but Root, after a fine knock, is the latest batsman to be out between seventy and ninety nine - think we still only have one hundred this season.
Labuschagne is one of cricket’s real enthusiasts - the number one batsman in the world and he’s acting as a runner for Ven Der Gugten.
Fifty ahead, but Van Der Gugten’s surely not going to bowl in Durham’s second innings.
Really disappointed with the commentary. The Durham guy as well as Nick Webb talking about Durham letting Glamorgan off the hook. Total nonsense as Root, Neser and Van Der Gugten batted really well. Shame that Webb didn’t mention this at all in commentary.
Durham 2 down already. Good stuff
