Durham vs Surrey Chances of Winning

Durham were on the receiving end of a thrashing against Somerset last time around, and the pitch conditions put the former in a bind as they were bundled out for a mere 145. Bowling all-rounder Ben Raine top-scored with 42 runs and the team had a tough time defending the score. Somerset took the lead with 250 runs on the board and Durham had a second chance to make things right. However, they found themselves all out for 190 and despite a commendable effort from the bowlers, the game was wrapped up in sub two days with Somerset taking a five-wicket victory.

Surrey, on the other hand,were in a high scoring draw with Yorkshire in the previous game- the latter scored 517 runs while batting first before declaring and Surrey countered with 537 runs on the board. Their top and middle order absolutely went hammer and tongs with half-centuries from Ryan Patel, Rory Burns, Dan Lawrence, Josh Blake and Dom Sibley who scored 92, 78, 78, 72 and 52, respectively. However, as Yorkshire were 120/5 in the third innings, their time ran out and a draw was reached.
