Durham v http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nottinghamshire-c826 - County Championship Division One - 1st Day - Live Cricket Scores and Update
Nottinghamshire 161 v http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Durham-c782 55/3 (22.0 ov) - Durham trail by 106 runs with 7 wickets remaining in the 1st innings
On Thursday, hosts Durham trail by 106 runs with seven wickets in hand after posting 55 runs in their first innings at stumps on the first day of the four-day match against Nottinghamshire, at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street.
After incinerating Nottinghamshire on a tally of 161 runs by exhibiting tremendous bowling, the hosts aimed to score high in the remaining overs of the day, but were rattled on losing their first wicket with 21 runs on the board, followed by the demise of the second wicket with 26 runs on the scorecard.
Opener, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Will-Smith-c2794, who found his way back to the pavilion after playing an innings of 11 runs.
Notts then managed to sneak in one more wicket as they dismissed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mark-Stoneman-c1910 on a tally of seven.
After this wicket, middle-order batsmen, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dale-Benkenstein-c1302 (6) prevented the fall of another wicket till the end of the day’s play.
Earlier, after winning the toss, Durham, had asked Nottinghamshire to bat on a fast tract which was expected to help the bowlers.
The prediction was correct as Notts batsmen failed to cope with the bowling attack by the hosts, resulting in the loss of wickets regularly.
With just 12 runs on the board, Notts lost their first batsman when http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Neil-Edwards-c2092 was given lbw on a tally of seven.
Then with 16 runs on the scorecard, the side saw another batsman walk off the field as opener, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Alex-Hales-c985, failed after posting five injuries.
And just when, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Lumb-c1981, started looking confident in the middle, he was removed after nine runs off 25 deliveries.
With three wickets down and not enough runs on the board, the side were certainly heading towards a train wreck and needed someone to bat long enough to forge a competitive innings.
It was then http://www.senore.com/Cricket/James-Taylor-c66127 and Chris Read who belted knocks of 32 and 28 that helped the team go beyond the 100-run mark before the end of their first innings.
