Durham 100-4 v Lancs 228
Martin Emmerson
BBC Radio NewcastleWest Indian debutant Anderson Phillip has taken two wickets so far today. He took Ben McKinney's middle stump out of the ground just before lunch, courtesy of a thick bottom edge.
Moments ago he got Alex Lees LBW for 43, the ball skidded in quick and low and got him right in front of the stumps.
The 28-year-old bowler from Trinidad and Tobago is getting a bit of pace out of the track in Chester-le-Street, having only been signed by Lancashire towards the back end of last week.
His debut contrasts with fellow West Indian Chemar Holder, who bowled for Durham yesterday and took 0-53.
It will be interesting to see how good Lancashire's total of 228 will be. Ollie Robinson has also gone LBW to Tom Aspinwall for 4. He's out of form at the moment after a great start to the season.
David Bedingham is key to what Durham can achieve here. His partnership with Lees was worth 69, the highest of the game so far.
Bedingham, who has just returned from international duty with South Africa, has 30.

Five-wicket haul for Rainepublished at 11:42 British Summer Time 10 September
Lancs 226-9 v Durham
Martin Emmerson
BBC Radio NewcastleBen Raine's bowled really nicely in this game and now has the 14th five-wicket haul of his career.
West Indian debutant Anderson Phillip was victim number five, falling LBW for two in the 11 over of the new ball. Raine's taken 5-39 in 24 overs with nine of them maidens. That maiden count includes four wicket maidens.
Earlier there was major disappointment for 20-year-old Matthew Hurst, who agonisingly ran himself out on 90. Tom Bailey had played the ball down to third man and appeared to be happy with two runs, while his colleague clearly thought there was a third to be had.
By the time he realised the error of his ways he was too far down the track and was run out by Matty Potts, as the bowler took a throw from Bas De Leede in the deep.
It is sunny in Chester-le-Street but also very windy and there's a chill to the air as well. Because of rain yesterday, day two is scheduled for 104 overs.

Lancashire 40-2 v Durham
Martin Emmerson
BBC Radio NewcastleThis was a good toss to win from a Durham point of view as they were able to put Lancashire in on a track which has been under the covers for the last two days.
No play was possible this morning because of drizzle. We eventually got underway at 12.50pm and within seconds Ben Raine had the first wicket of the day, as Luke Wells edged the first delivery of the game to the keeper.
Raine got a wicket with the first ball of the last match at Somerset as well. He also bowled Keaton Jennings today for nine, to leave Lancashire 15-2 in the ninth over. Both dismissals brought about wicket maidens.
The lights are on and there's rain in the air, although the forecast for later today is not too bad.
Despite the great start, Durham have not managed to bowl a side out twice in a Kookaburra game. This is match number five using one. Will they eventually be able to press home their advantage this time?
