Brilliant game. Lancs came from nowhere at the end. 
 

A lot of talent in that side but we’re about to lose Salt, Livi, Wood as well as Parky. That’s the heart of the team.

I thought we had blown it with dropped catches.

What a finish!

Tom Hartley, Hero and celebrated to the full in front of a packed stand in Yorkshire. Lovely.

Fantastic game, amazing finish and a very happy day at work for me in Yorkshire tomorrow 🙂 

Take a bow Tom Hartley.

I thought we’d lost it on the last ball. Camera went to wrong fielder who appeared to be looking into the stand.🥴

6 in a row. Didn't see it as i won't pay sky. Radio Lancs had good coverage

[1874]

Think Lancs enjoyed that

Yeah, Drakes got a good contact, the crowd was roaring and the cameras focussed on the wrong fielder on the boundary. My heart sunk. Then they picked up on Hartley 🙂

Revis (non striker) evidently thought Yorks had won, because he embraced Drakes with a huge smile on his face.

That moment when the Yorkie batsman thinks his partner has just hit a six off the last ball to win the Roses match 😂😂😂

As den says above, bloody awful camera work by Sky to pick out the wrong fielder, happened a few times last night.

I think they might have hired the lad that Leicestershire used the night before.....

Buttler has been a waste  of a signing,i don't know how much Lancs pay him but it's too much for what they get from him.

The social media team lap up whatever he does too, it's nauseating. He literally barely plays for us - I think basically QF / SF/ F of the T20 Blast most years, if it lines up with his calendar.

Really can't stand the bloke, especially because he's a crap Test cricketer. 

[Mattyblue]

Yeah but it’s not the Originals vs *checks notes* the Superchargers though, is it?

[47er]

Anderson strikes! 84-2.

Never has the old adage 'add two wickets onto the score' been more appropriate! What was beginning to look like a disastrous session for England now looks okay.

[chaddyrovers]

Very surprised by Stokes's decision to bowl first today. Seems to me to be win toss bat first wicket. 

Pitch is flat as ever

[jim mk2]

Poor decision by Stokes and some old story for England bowlers who always seem to struggle to take wickets unless the pitch is doing something.  Dropped catches don't help either. NZ should make 450 plus from here

You need a really good reason not to bat first in a Test Match.

Durham v Lancashire, streamed live from the Durham changing room.

Jesus Christ, lads, show a little impartiality, eh? Unprofessional twonks.

They are more irritating than the camera work, quite an achievement.

Livingstone and Wood a big miss as Lancs fall to first defeat just.

Yes, 130 all out was always going to be difficult to defend, but they came close with Durham just making it with 3 balls to spare. Lancs still top after 8 games.

Yes, and it’s going to get worse when Salt goes as well. Did well to stay in it, but that penultimate over from Hurt cost us the match. Got it all wrong. He’s had quite a few chances over the last few years and simply doesn’t look up to it.

He was all over the place with that penultimate over. He had no control.

He was loaned to Derbyshire recently, and they quickly sent him back. Enough said.

Im fearful for the next week, when we have a Championship match and more T20s, with several key players missing.

Also lost our overseas bowler now in the Championship, and with Anderson away and Mahmood injured, it’s looking pretty thin.
