Lancashire captain Keaton Jennings hits a century and Ben Stokes returns to take two wickets for Durham on day one in Blackpool.

Lancashire captain Keaton Jennings hit a century and Ben Stokes returned to take two wickets for Durham on a closely-contested day one in Blackpool.

Playing his first County Championship match for two years, Stokes took 2-70 with Ben Raine claiming 3-67 and Matthew Potts chipping in with 2-94 for Durham. The home side got off to a positive start after being asked to bat first on a grey morning in Blackpool, with Jennings quickly getting into his stride.

With the sun breaking through and another partnership building, the home side looked well set, only for Stokes to find the breakthrough with a seemingly unthreatening short ball that Bohannon top-edged to deep backward square.
