So, that also brings an end to our coverage of this game between Leicestershire Foxes and Durham. For now, this is me Hiren Kumar signing off on behalf of my scorer/analyst Ghandera Singh Thakur. CHEERS!!!
1:50 AM IST and 9:20 PM Local time: Durham win by 7 wickets and register their first win of the season. A clinical performance from them with both bat and ball.

With the bat, the Foxes were off to a decent start inside the powerplay but looked ordinary in the middle overs. Ben Cox played a solid knock of 50* runs to given them a good finish in the death.
Coming to the chase, Durham batters were off to a good start with skipper Lees holding one end firmly. He played a match winning knock of 71* runs and finished the game for his side. Bedingham was also brilliant at the top and scored 43 off 32 balls. So, Durham finally have a win to their name after losing two back to back games.
