Day four report

Durham coasted to their first Specsavers County Championship win of the season after making light work of a second-innings run chase to beat Glamorgan by nine wickets at Chester-le-Street.

Stephen Cook led the way with an unbeaten 89 from 78 balls in his final appearance while Cameron Steel survived three difficult chances to make 51 off 58 balls as Durham reached their 157 target with 18.3 overs to spare.

Cook worked the ball into leg-side spaces before cutting Marchant de Lange to the rope as he scored 34 off the 54 which came off the first 10 overs.

With their seamers making no impression, Glamorgan turned to Andrew Salter's off spin and Cook drove him wide of mid-off for his sixth four to reach 50 off 49 balls.

Two similar strokes for his eighth and ninth fours brought the winning runs.

Only 28 were needed when Salter persuaded Steel to chip a catch to deep mid-off, allowing Jack Burnham to assist in completing the task with an unbeaten 14.

After resuming on 92 for two, Glamorgan were dismissed for 263 in their second innings, with Colin Ingram left unbeaten on 70, made off 137 balls with seven fours and a pulled six.

Barry McCarthy finished with four for 65 after briefly coming under fire from nightwatchman Lukas Carey. After conceding 16 runs in 11 overs, McCarthy went for 26 in two, which included a six over long-on.

But when he needed one for his second half-century in successive games, Carey got carried away and had his stumps splattered when he swung round an in-swinger from Chris Rushworth.

Three wickets had gone down for five runs in three overs when McCarthy pinned Aneurin Donald lbw with a shooter and had David Lloyd well caught at second slip by Ryan Pringle off an edged drive.

Ingram survived a difficult chance to Steel at cover off McCarthy, but was otherwise untroubled and was kept company for 16 overs after lunch by Tom Cullen on his championship debut. But after making 13 he shouldered arms and lost his off stump to a Rushworth in-swinger in the sixth over of the new ball.

De Lange threatened to take it away from Durham in a ninth-wicket stand of 40 in six overs but Rushworth clung on to a return catch from a fierce drive then three overs later Michael Hogan played across the line and was bowled off his pads by McCarthy.

Day three report

Durham lost five wickets for just six runs but still emerged with a decent first-innings lead after a rain-affected third day at Chester-le-Street.

After thunder storms wiped out the morning session, Durham collapsed from 328 for four to 334 for nine, but last-wicket pair Chris Rushworth and Barry McCarthy put on 68 to achieve maximum batting points with two balls to spare - and give the hosts a first-innings lead of 107.

Glamorgan reached 92 for two in the remaining 42 overs of the day, with Jacques Rudolph enduring a searching examination from Durham's four seamers until two overs from the close, when he was strangled down the leg side for 43.

Rudolph's wicket was a deserved reward for academy boy Matty Potts, who also took the other when he had Nick Selman lbw for 16.

Rudolph twice edged Potts for four through the vacant third slip area and the youngster conceded only eight more runs in his eight overs.

When Durham resumed on 281 for four, Paul Collingwood and Ryan Pringle added 47 in the first 12 overs.

Pringle hit Michael Hogan for three fours in four balls, but he fell lbw to the next to start the slide.

Graham Wagg had Paul Coughlin caught behind first ball, then Collingwood departed for 92 to a steeply-bouncing ball which Marchant de Lange lobbed off a glove to Aneurin Donald at gully.

An in-swinger from Wagg had Stuart Poynter lbw for four before De Lange banged another one in to have Potts caught at short leg for a duck.

Durham still needed 16 for the fourth batting point when Rushworth joined McCarthy.

But they were relatively untroubled once De Lange rested after a 12-over spell, in which his two for 30 took his overall figures to five for 95.

McCarthy was on 30 when Rushworth fell for 38, chipping Hogan to mid-on with the total on 402.

Andrew Salter will begin the final day on 25 for Glamorgan, with Lukas Carey yet to score as they trail by 15 with eight wickets in hand.

Day two report

Graham Clark's maiden century put Durham in command on the second day of their Specsavers County Championship Division Two match against Glamorgan at Chester-le-Street.

The match was evenly balanced when Paul Collingwood joined Clark at 87 for three in reply to 295, but Durham's record stand against the Welsh county of 185 helped them to 280 for four.

Clark was out for 109 three overs before the close, but Collingwood remained unbeaten on 71, the sixth time in his last seven innings he has passed 50, including 127 and 92 not out at Swansea.

Marchant de Lange carried easily the greatest threat in the visiting attack and took three of the wickets. But they continued to feed the pull in front of mid-wicket, which brought Clark a six and eight of the 17 fours in his 135-ball knock.

After Glamorgan's remaining three wickets added 74 in the morning the cooler day produced 354 runs, compared with 221 on the sun-baked first day.

De Lange chanced his arm with the bat it in making 37 before Barry McCarthy wrapped up the Glamorgan tail. De Lange drove him for a straight six before the Irishman found just enough swing to find the edge.

Lukas Carey also went for his shots and made 10 before driving to mid-off and two balls later Michael Hogan edged a lavish drive to Stuart Poynter, leaving McCarthy with three for 55.

In his final match for Durham the out-of-form Stephen Cook made 14 before De Lange had him caught behind off a tentative prod. Jack Burnham, returning after a broken thumb, contributed 25 to a stand of 41 with Cameron Steel before he edged Carey on to the chest of wicketkeeper Tom Cullen and the ball rebounded into the hands of Colin Ingram at first slip.

When De Lange returned for a second spell Steel upper cut his first ball for four, drove the second to the cover boundary and watched the fourth balloon over the keeper for four byes. But in attempting a second upper cut he edged a poor ball to Cullen to depart for 32.

That brought in Collingwood, who did well to keep out De Lange before beginning to accumulate steadily while relying on Clark to pepper the boundaries.

The 24-year-old Cumbrian finally fell when he followed a De Lange away swinger and edged to give Cullen his third catch but by then he had done enough to keep his side well in the game.

Day one report

Glamorgan opener Nick Selman followed his match-winning century against Durham at Swansea last month with another hundred in the Specsavers County Championship Division Two match at Chester-le-Street.

But Durham's Chris Rushworth hit back with the second new ball, grabbing three wickets to finish with five for 40 as the visitors slipped from 182 for three to close the first day on 221 for seven.

Having elected to bat in baking heat, Glamorgan ground along all day, losing only one wicket in each of the first two sessions in reaching 147 from 66 overs.

Selman took 249 balls to reach his hundred, getting there by inside-edging Rushworth for his 13th four. Three balls later he was lbw for 103.

Off-spinner Ryan Pringle conceded only 23 runs in 19 overs as Durham maintained their accuracy, with the other two wickets going to academy seamer Matty Potts in his second appearance.

Jacques Rudolph fell in the seventh over when Rushworth was rewarded for an excellent spell by clipping the left-hander's off bail but that was the only breakthrough of an attritional first session.

Andrew Salter, promoted to three in the absence of Will Bragg, cut and pulled Barry McCarthy for two fours but was otherwise restrained.

He departed after lunch for 25 when he pushed forward and edged Rushworth to wicketkeeper Stuart Poynter to end a stand of 66 in 34 overs.

Colin Ingram also made a cautious start but began to flourish when he drove Pringle through the covers then cut him for another four.

He was out for 33 when Potts moved one away to have him caught behind.

When Rushworth took the second new ball his fourth delivery swung in to take out Aneurin Donald's off stump.

Deliveries which nipped back accounted for Selman and David Lloyd lbw, although neither seemed happy with the decision.

Potts took the final wicket of the day when wicketkeeper Tom Cullen, handed his debut after Chris Cooke took a blow on the head in practice, was well caught at second slip by Pringle.
