I watched Durham, who were favourites to win the match despite a rain induced and generous decleration, lose to a simply stunning innings from the young Yorkshire batsman Joe Root. He failed by only one ball to carry his bat, but it made no difference as his side won because of his epic 182.

This young man will be one of the cornerstones of England's batting for years to come. A disappointing day for Durham, but a great day for Root, Yorkshire and English cricket. This man will be a world star in less than three years.
