Australian Fergus O'Neill made a good start to his Notts career as he took the first two wickets to fall and then weighed in with a catch.

He bowled some really tight lines this morning, getting Ben McKinney caught behind for five and Emilio Gay in the same manner for a duck.

Durham were 24-2 in the eighth over before Alex Lees and Colin Ackermann put on 78 runs. But Lees fell for 52, chipping a ball from Farhan Ahmed to O'Neill at mid-on.

Ackermann will resume after lunch on 41.

Two of the three people injured in Thursday's crash remain in hospital, police say.

Debutant Fergus O'Neill took two wickets in his first spell of County Championship cricket. The seamer has joined Notts for the first part of the season and both his victims were caught behind.

Ben McKinney, who recently played against O'Neill for England Lions against Australia A, was on five when he edged to keeper Joe Clarke. Emilio Gay did the same thing and went for an eight-ball duck.

His first spell of bowling lasted seven overs and he took 2-24.
