Red ball withdrawal starting today. #cricket #TestCricket #CountyChampionship
@toxy @TheLastOfHisName we're actually kind of lucky in North America that we can stream most international #cricket on Willow for $10/month. But everyone should tune into the last three #CountyChampionship matches on YouTube in a month. As Toxy says, the production values vary, but there's been some high drama, and with three of the top four playing each other in the final rounds, it promises to be a thirlling finish.
And that is why white ball cricket can never come close to a red ball game that goes the distance. #countychampionship #test
Nottinghamshire v Somerset has ended an agreed draw, Somerset declaring their second innings at 210-5, a lead of 94, and Nottinghamshire decided not bother having a bash and seeing if they could somewhere close in the remaining overs.

Yes! Nightwatch century. #cricket #CountyChampionship
Stumps on day two, Durham 222-5 in their second innings lead Surrey by 53 overall.

Ackermann goes to a catch by Ryan Patel at short leg off Lawrence. He is not pleased, and understandably since the ball hit pad not bat. However, he has gone for 43 and Durham are 219-5, still only 50 runs ahead.

Ollie Robinson donates his wicket to Sai Kishore, hitting a catch straight to Dan Lawrence. Terrible batting by the wicket keeper. Durham 209-4, 40 ahead overall.

I'm guessing #JamesAnderson is the only person in first-class #cricket to take a wicket and score a run on his 43rd birthday. #CountyChampionship #LANvGLA #LancashireCricket
Curran has Gay caught by Kishore for 99 and Durham are 173-3, a mere four runs ahead.

Tea on day two and Durham are 143-2, still 26 short of making Surrey bat again.

Lunch on day four - Surrey all out on the stroke of the interval for 322, a lead of 169. Durham came into today needing to wrap the Surrey innings up before the lead became unmanageable (it was 29 with five wickets standing at the time). It has taken them all morning to get Surrey out, and the lead is well and truly unmanageable.

Stumps on day one. Surrey are 182-5 in reply to Durham's 1st innings 153 all out.

50 up for Lawrence. Surrey now within two of Durham's beggarly first innings 153 all out.

Cody Yusuf does bowl good balls (like the one that got Foakes), but he also seems to bowl a lot of rubbish.
#cricket #CountyCricket #CountyChampionship #DurhamvSurrey
Foakes bowled by a good 'un from South African medium pacer Codi Yusuf. Surrey 124-5 in reply to Durham's 153 all out. Yusuf is supposedly an all rounder, but an FC batting average of 17.40 does not square with my definition of all rounder.

A great week for England spinners in the County Championship! Rehan Ahmed combined 115 with 13-144 in Leicestershire's win over Derbyshire; Tom Hartley got 130 and 11-115 for Lancashire, who are chasing 110 to beat Gloucestershire. (ETA: Lancashire also won.)

Meanwhile, in today's big cricket match, #Glamorgan have beaten #Kent to go second in Division 2 of the #CountyChampionship
