I'm pretty relaxed about all this. Come what may, we are safe in CC1 next season and have already picked up over twice as many points from this game as we got from our previous two CC1 games at the Riverside put together! The biggest thing for me is that everyone has a good leg stretch, finds a bit of form and stays fit and safe for Saturday. It all feels to me a bit like one of those meaningless mid-table final games of the season in the Premiership when the FA Cup Final beckons for one of the sides the following week.

It'll all be worth it when Sam Curran scores an unbeaten century to guide us home to a three wicket victory with 3.3 overs to spare on day four folks

344 - 8. After Sam Curran fell very early in the day a handy partnership of 45* between Batty and Meaker.

367 all out - so that was an unexpected extra batting point. Meaker 35* Now looks likely Durham will have to bat into tomorrow morning.

Will go to the grave wondering why Batty doesn't bowl himself more

106 for the 6th wicket at tea - keeps happening. We just can't finish teams off.

Re: SURREY VS DURHAM SPECSAVERS COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
No idea why we are playing two spinners in this game how we could have done with the extra batsman

Bang on, JimBob. It's not as if it's come as a surprise either!
Could be more of an issue in the early games of next season (when pitches and conditions typically are unhelpful to spinners) if it's planned for both Ansari and Borthwick to bowl then - if so, can or should a place be found for Batty?

Some wobbles by both teams over the 3 days so far but Olly's prediction remains a possibility for tomorrow evening.

Poos start today with 1-2 then 11-3. A lot depends on Roy getting another ton and someone sticking with him.

80 - 3 and Ansari and Roy have got us back into the game - but it's still a daunting task as wickets fall in clusters in this match.

Re: SURREY VS DURHAM SPECSAVERS COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
133 runs needed from 46 overs with 7 wickets left
Roy currently 83*, Ansari 45* - partnership is worth 137*
Will probably need these two to get us within 60/70 runs to be considered favourites

168 - 4 at tea, with Roy on 96, and new batsman Foakes on 1*. 113 runs needed in a minimum of 41 overs - although we have lost overs for bad light towards close of play earlier in the match.

Re: SURREY VS DURHAM SPECSAVERS COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
Roy out first ball after tea for 96 That's probably it - although there is still time and opportunity for Sam Curran to score a winning century, as predicted by Olly, if he farms the strike really carefully...
Anyway, a very good effort by Roy in this match...

That's trouble! More than 70 away, only 5 left and plenty of time.

Looks like Durham going for a containing strategy at the moment - with Stokes hardly conceding a run - in hope no doubt of a rash stroke or two. Any result still possible...

Excellent 50 partnership between Foakes and Sam Curran - even if they have now become becalmed.

Be nice if our key players - Ansari, Roy, Foakes, could stop giving us all the willies by being hit on the hand and arms. Meanwhile That's All and Curran even more Junior are doing a grand job of giving us a sniff.

Foakes falls for 20. Sadly Surrey do seem prone to lose wickets when they have become bogged down - but I guess that it is the essence of good bowling - if you dry up the runs almost completely then the batsmen are likely to get frustrated.

Hopefully batty playing as the specialist batsman pays off

Tom Curran's not had the best of matches - and goes quickly. I think, realistically, if we are to have any chance now Sam Curran will need to look for some quick runs. We've been strangled completely by Durham in the last hour or so of play.
Last 10 overs we've managed 13 - 2.

Right you are Corporal. I guess we're looking to our vastly experienced 18 year old to lead the victory charge from here, then.

Perhaps if we asked nicely Durham would let our bowlers bowl as they're experts at letting the tale score free runs!

Re: SURREY VS DURHAM SPECSAVERS COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
Had we needed around 40 with only 6 or 7 overs left, I feel we would have been in with a chance of pulling it off if we still had 5 wickets left - could afford to biff and see what happened, shutting up shop if we lost a couple of wickets. However, with 7 down now and over 50 to get, it's looking mighty difficult.

Sam Curran obliges with 10 off an Onions over. Tense.

Re: SURREY VS DURHAM SPECSAVERS COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
Batty falls with still 29 needed. Meaker is in reasonable batting form at the moment. If one more wicket falls, tho, I can't see Footitt lasting longer than about three or four balls.
A very fine effort by Sam Curran on 47*

There are enough overs for Curran to not need to give Meaker the strike early in the over. Surrey are usually quite good tho at the established batsman taking the single of first ball of the over....

A shame we don't need more so Olly's prediction could come off!

Single off first ball of the over. Gets Sam his 50 but massively risky tactic!
