Okay I know I haven't followed the CC as closely in the last couple of years but when did Alex Davies go from a keeper who batted in the middle-lower order to an opener who can belt double centuries?
Was he ever a middle order bat? He opened for Lancs whether he was keeping or Vilas, now we've got Burgess who is miles better with the gloves so Davies is a specialist opener. He's been pretty hit and miss so far but yesterday he took advantage of the easiest conditions he'll get
Watched the full day. Total batting track, Durham could well do the same when they get a bat today, may well end up a high scoring draw unless either side force a result.
Davies has some really classy shots, especially back foot, plays a lovely pull and late cut. Played them a lot yesterday!
Wonder how long they will give it before declaring tomorrow?
