12/2. I hope someone can get a score otherwise our confidence could be well and truly shot.

Warwickshire 22/4 at lunch.

Looks like tough batting conditions, and Durham are bowling well, not helped by a very questionable LBW for Rhodes dismissal.

Does anybody else have poor/varying sound quality on their stream?

As you say, I don't think there will be any changes unless Stone is withdrawn, but I suspect that he will play as I believe ECB want him to have overs under his belt.

Norwell would be the obvious change if not, and given all other bowling options are playing in the 2nd's, can't see what else the change would be.

Forecast is looking a bit hit and miss, depending on which website you trust! Especially for the first two days so could be similar to Derbyshire where it's on/off.

The fact he hasn't come out to bat when Rhodes was out suggests he won't be taking any further part in this game.

I think I know the answer to this, but say he doesn't play any more of the match upon ECB orders, can we bring a batsman in to replace him?

We've signed Hanuma Vihari BBC article to cover for Malan while the Visa issue is sorted out - I wonder what's causing the delay.

I have to say I don't know much about Vihari and don't recall him being in England when India toured, which the article tells me he was, but any option to boost the batting lineup is a positive, as I think batting will be much more of a problem in CC than bowling.
