Is that all they’re playing? No white ball stuff? What are the women playing?
All I saw is a tour manifest detailing the above fixtures and Durham have put a package together for their fans to come and watch; £3k
nice littler earner for someone.

T20 being played at the end is ridiculous. Anybody in form cannot be picked for the summer cricket!!!
Anybody that does well will be forgotten by December
They'll need to back up their good t20 by some solid red ball 10 months later

I have no idea. I'm sure it's on a schedule somewhere.

@ZimCricketv
will field a squad primarily consisting of national team players for the upcoming 3-day matches against @DurhamCricket. These games will serve as preparation for their Test match against @englandcricket ,and they will be using Duke balls.

What is the point of a 3 day match?

So there is enough time for 2 of them. And so that Durham's bowlers don't have to put in too much of a shift pre-season if it gets flat.
