Two fat ladies

Durham 222 for 5 (73 overs). Benkenstein 18, Mustard 26.

Benkenstein has dropped anchor deep. Mustard more positive and has swept and reverse-swept the spinners.

Botha, with every right to be rusty having bowled just four championship overs before this match, has bowled accurately and helped build pressure. The spinners have just changed ends.

When Botha bowls to Benkenstein we have mumber 44 bowling to number 44. Unusual, that, for a Sunday.
