Waterson has enjoyed an excellent season so far for Whitburn in the NEPL Premier Division, taking 8-53 against the Durham Academy two weeks ago.

The NEPL side will be skippered by Scotland international Kyle Coetzer and features former Durham and England star Phil Mustard, who is playing for Felling, and Chester-le-Street bowler Stephen Cantwell, who will hope to capitalise on his home-ground knowledge.

Durham: Kyle Coetzer (C), Jacques du Toit, Ollie McGee, Simon Birtwistle, Kieran Waterson, Mark Watt, Phil Mustard, Jacques Snyman, Stephen Cantwell, Jake McCann, Chris Peareth
