Durham County Cricket Club has declared the ground unsafe after Storm Dave inflicted damage on the Riverside ground, effectively canceling all scheduled play for day three.

With no play likely to resume, the county’s fixtures are now in limbo as officials assess the damage and determine whether the ground can be used in the coming days.
