00:00Durham's winning run in the Vitality T20 Blast came to an end on Wednesday evening as they were beaten away from home against Worcestershire Rapids by six wickets, despite Will Rhodes scoring an unbeaten 58 during Durham's batting innings.
00:17The result has not affected the table as of yet, with Durham remaining in second place in the Northern Group stage, but they were disappointed following the loss, following the momentum that they had gained in winning three on the trot, including a victory away at rivals Yorkshire.
00:35They are set to take on Yorkshire next in the T20 Blast, where they will hope to return to winning ways and put pressure on the top of the table.
00:44Certainly, head coach Ryan Campbell has wanted Durham to become prevalent in both red ball and white ball cricket this season.
00:53Yeah, look, I think that I've said this from the moment I walked in the door, that I think white ball cricket has been a little bit sort of neglected up here in the North East, and red ball was our main priority, but we just very simply want to be the best club in England.
01:07And Gateshead FC chairman Bernard McWilliams has made clear just how the process went into selecting Gateshead's new manager Alan Armstrong, with McWilliams making clear it was one of the hardest decisions of his career.
01:21Probably because I know a lot more about Alan than the other candidates, the other candidates were absolutely fantastic.
01:31I'd probably say it was probably one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make.
01:35I've interviewed a few people in other roles, but not in football.
01:39It's a strange animal to be involved in, but because I know what he can do.
01:47And I also know he knows a bit more of where we're at, what's behind the scenes, what's been holding me up, the sort of ambitions we had.
02:00And we need to be realistic, and I think being realistic, Alan's got the capabilities to handle that, to put us back on course, put us back, put us back in the centre of the community.
