The Durham bowlers have kept it really tight this morning.
Only three runs were scored in the first 45 minutes - and the pressure eventually told.
With Middlesex on 46, former Durham opener Mark Stomeman was on 19 when he looked to cut a delivery from Ben Raine which was wide of off stump and he was caught behind.
England's Matty Potts has bowled 12 overs, nine of which were maidens. Having said all of that, taking 20 wickets here will be a major task on a slow and flat track.
