SURREY BROWN CAPS V DURHAM DYNAMOS at Guildford (Pro40
Division 2), 29 JULY 2007
Curiously, the last seven limited-overs meetings between these two sides plus
four out of the last five one-day contests at Guildford have gone to the side
batting first. So, weather permitting, it could soon be evident how the game
will pan out tomorrow.
West Indian Test star Shivnarine Chanderpaul is set to make his debut for the
Dynamos in place of New Zealand's Scott Styris. With Michael Di Venuto fit
again, Durham will be a force with the bat, especially when one analyses their
opening game victory against Middlesex, in which they batted second under lights
and sneaked home. In tricky conditions Phil Mustard, Kyle Coetzer, Dale
Benkenstein and Gordon Muchall all made useful contributions with the bat.
Durham's bowling was as much a factor in them reaching the Friends Provident
Trophy final. Even without Mark Davies and Graham Onions, there are a number of
threats in the shape of Ottis Gibson, Gareth Breese and Liam Plunkett, of
course, who helped to destroy Surrey when these two sides went head to head at
the Riverside two years ago.
To follow... sorry.
Alistair Brown, James Benning and Jimmy Ormond have all been called up from
stints in the second eleven, suggesting that tomorrow's match will represent a
trial ahead of the Brown Caps' next four-day clash, against Kent at Canterbury.
Mohammad Akram and Ian Salisbury are both fit to play again, but are not
considered.

Durham have been on fire in one-day cricket this summer, reaching the final of
the FP Trophy, while Surrey's main priority seems to be avoiding relegation the
championship. What I am trying to say (badly) is that I don't quite fancy the
Brown Caps for this one.

G Muchall, O Gibson, G Breese, L Plunkett, N Killeen and P Wiseman.
