A good game for those that played

Craig Spearman, Andre Adams and Scott Styris all missed their latest county games, but Craig McMillan had a good first game against Stephen Fleming's Nottinghamshire side. McMillan hit 52 and a blistering 26 not out off only 13 balls. He also took more wickets than team-mate Shane Warne - ending with 2-49 and 1-36 - and all his wickets came from the top order. His opponent, Fleming, hasn't got too much to be upset about however, he scored 7 and 105 to take his season first-class tally to 598 runs at an average of 66.44.

Of those he played, the only one to be disappointed would be Nathan Astle. He scored only 11 before being trapped lbw by Chaminda Vaas and failed to appear in Durham's second innings.
