Sayers is bad for cricket, seriously! Yorkshire have absolutely plodded, trudged and lumbered along at an appalling 2.2 runs per over all day, and though Sayers has a hundred he took 300 balls to do it!!! The more annoying thing is that Yorkshire are in a very commanding position having played seriously negative cricket, and holding Yorkshire as my second team I'm ashamed of that! Having Durham as my first, well, I'm just annoyed...

I'm delighted,we will collect 4 batting points which is good and Brophy is smashing it everywhere after Sayers gave him the platform to do it.

It could just be that Harmison and co have bowled well and Sayers couldn't score quickly as the rest of the batsmen haven't been quick apart from Brophy.

From the looks of it both Harmison and Onions have bowled economically and Harmy has another 4 wickets.

*Splutter*

I'm so very glad I don't have a kettle in my office, I'd have just marinaded my computer in tea and spittle!!! If that is 'attacking' cricket I'd love to see Chris Tavare's profile...

Oh Hoggy, on one side I'm hurt but on the other I'm delighted. Looks like he's starting the season in top form!

Durham 18/5 (Second Innings) from 11.1 overs.

P Mustard 1
GR Breese 1

MJ Hoggard 6-2-11-4.
D Gough 5.1-1-8-1.

I bet you wish you had someone playing an innings like Sayers now.

Looks like 2 comfortable victories for Yorkshire then,a great start to the season.

Being serious it is great to see Harmison back to form and pleasing that his new ball partner is flying too.Just need to find another paceman in form to join Freddie and we should beat a Lara less West Indies quite comfortably.

We would beat this windies side without Harmison or Freddie. The Hoggster will do plenty of damage and any back ups selected from Plunkett, Mahmood, Lewis, Gough, Sidebottom or anyone else half decent at bowling in english conditions will take wickets. This Windies side will be there for a whitewash. (sorry BLACKWASH!!!)
