Durham go into the LV County Championship Division One match with Hampshire at Chester-le-Street with the same squad that skittled champions Sussex last week.

Steve Harmison, who took seven wickets for 110 runs at Hove, can expect to lead the line again, while Mark Davies and Callum Thorp should continue in the absence of Graham Onions (heel) and Liam Plunkett (side).

Will Smith continues in the side after his successful return to first-team cricket in the last month, which included a score of 107 against Sussex.
