Durham 198-0, trail Surrey by 273
Martin Emmerson
BBC Radio NewcastleThis game will be put out of its misery in an hour. The Surrey players look thoroughly fed-up in the field, just like the Durham players did on the first two days.
There have been 29 centuries across the country in this round of games, which the statistician Andrew Samson says is a new county record. And it's all because of the ball.
I may have said this before, but I am going to say it again. I hope we never see this Kookaburra experiment again. Bin it! After this year because it is doing nothing to help the County Championship.
PS, Alex Lees and Emilio Gay have done well today and taken the opening stand to 198. Gay's century was that 29th.
