THREE OUT OF THREE FOR DURHAM

Sports Reporter

DURHAM made it three in three matches in the domestic T20 competition where they are playing as guests of Zimbabwe Cricket.

The English county side have been the stand-out side in the competition and their superiority has been telling with each passing day.

Yesterday, they won by 16 runs DLS method after afternoon rain disrupted the Rocks chase.

Durham batted first and posted 174/5.

Colin Ackerman was the star of their batting with his half century (52) while he received support from Graham Clark 35 from 30 balls and Ollie Robinson 27 from 26 balls.

Jalat Khan led the Rocks bowling with 2-23 while Dylan Hondo also took two wickets for 26 runs.

In response, captain Roy Kaia (17) and Eddie Byron (17) offered the resistance.

But, in the end, Durham were the winners and now lead the table after what is proving to be a worthy tour ahead of the county season in England.
