Jofra is getting hung out to dry here
Of course he's gonna come steaming in faster than ever, Australia only needed 60
and in their first innings he was probably prepared to bowl 15-25 overs, of course he wasn't gonna flog himself
Whatever he did he couldn't win
Don't make him your "escape goat"

The anger still outweighs the disappointment this morning, until theres some form of change or accountability for this debacle at @durhamcricket.bsky.social then this will continue

Surrey didn't read the memo. 9 down, leading by 156
and we simply aren't taking a further 14 wickets in this game.
Game over
A woeful campaign on all fronts, masked briefly by a flirt with T20 Finals Day but even that ended spectacularly poorly.
and we simply aren't taking a further 14 wickets in this game.

Anyone in this Durham squad who doesn't go by the name of Benjamin Alexander Raine has to know they've let themselves down this season.
The wholesale changes and a new bowler seemingly every week hasn't helped.
And we can only hope the captaincy is addressed next season.

Well.... Surrey will HAVE to beat Hampshire next time so hopefully they'll bring their best game...
That could be in our favour
Although we deserve absolutely nothing from this league campaign.

To be honest id forgotten we had Paul Coughlin but best wishes to him, a talented lad who never quite got the luck.

Good luck Coggers. Top lad.
