DURHAM suffered a wobble after Mark Stoneman completed his second century in successive championship innings.

Following his 131 against Yorkshire he reached 112 before departing in the middle of a slide from 184 for one to 219 for five.

It could have been worse as Paul Collingwood was dropped at first slip on six off Chris Woakes after Tim Ambrose dived across Varun Chopra.

Collingwood also survived a big lbw appeal from Rikki Clarke but progressed to 18 at tea, when Durham were 236 for five.

Stoneman scored the first 22 runs after lunch to bring up the 100 stand with Scott Borthwick and continued to dominate as his second 50 came off 51 balls.

Jeetan Patel had bowled seven overs for 11 runs until Stoneman hit him for four fours off the back foot through the off side in two overs to speed from 84 to his 127-ball hundred.

The stand was worth 151 when Borthwick fell for 67 to Chris Woakes, who has bowled well on his return from injury.

He initially looked to be appealing for lbw, but the ball had nicked the inside edge and flown off the pad to gully, where Laurie Evans held the catch.

Tom Milnes had conceded 48 in eight overs when he suddenly moved a good-length ball away off the seam to hit Stoneman's off stump.

Michael Richardson made a streaky three before aiming airily across the line and falling lbw to Clarke.

Gordon Muchall made 11 before Milnes found his edge with another good one, bringing in Ryan Pringle, who was on ten at tea.
