Durrant sees off Richardson in thrilling clash, Cross eases past Henderson

Three more players are through to the final day of action at the International Darts Open with the theme being the dominance of the seeds so far with Glen Durrant, Rob Cross and Adrian Lewis all making it past their respective tests.

Durrant came through a thrilling clash with James Richardson claiming it 6-3 but that didn't paint the full picture. 'Ruthless' played his part hitting four 180's and averaging 100 but just lost out to 'Duzza' who himself averaged 98.

Cross had a much more simpler route through with 'Voltage' coming through a 6-1 rout against John Henderson with a 101 average who couldn't continue his form that he has shown especially in the past week.

Lewis impressed at points against William O'Connor but only just edged past 'The Magpie' with an 81 average to boot. It is a day of Major Champions, will that continue as the session continues in Riesa.
