- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR63.1 outside off, and an eager slash, looking for the century in a violent blow. But the keeper is standing up to the stumps and clings on well to send him on his way for 99! Cruel sport... 185/812.3 full and straight, right up to the shins as Young strides into trouble, thumped on the pad and up goes the finger! 23/115.4 excellent sharp grab at third slip! Aggressive full length from Morris, angled across the left-hander, and kissing the edge of the bat, flies low and hard but Fell gets down well 36/231.1 outside off, fourth-stump line, nipping away off the seam on a full length as Bedingham pokes onto the front foot. A fizzing edge is scooped up well at first slip, stooping to his right. Another one bites the dust 86/344.6 Back of a length, skids on into the knee-roll as Burnham buckles on impact. That would be hitting the top of the stumps. Another one down 127/446.2 Two in three balls for Tongue! This one gets big on Eckersley as he rises to defend, and he deflects it down into his stumps! Sharp pace and bounce 131/549.3 Back of a length, angled in, jams the edge of the bat and first slip pockets a looping chance. Worcestershire making the running now 136/666.1 bowled round his legs! The left-handed Raine walks across to the off side, and his leg stump takes a tumble! 198/880.6 a wafty drive from Wood, and his middle peg has been plucked out! A pleasing sight from one fast bowler against another 242/982.2 chops it onto his own stumps! Tongue completes a hugely deserved five-for, as Durham fall short of a batting point. Outside off, just back of a length, shaping in, caught in no-man's land 246/9Extras30 (b 12, lb 14, nb 2, w 2)TOTAL246 all out (82.2 Overs, RR: 2.98)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Will Young, 12.3 ov), 2-36 (Scott Borthwick, 15.4 ov), 3-86 (David Bedingham, 31.1 ov), 4-127 (Jack Burnham, 44.6 ov), 5-131 (Ned Eckersley, 46.2 ov), 6-136 (Stuart Poynter, 49.3 ov), 7-183 (Alex Lees, 63.1 ov), 8-198 (Ben Raine, 66.1 ov), 9-242 (Mark Wood, 80.6 ov), 10-246 (Chris Rushworth, 82.2 ov)
