England captain Andrew Strauss was dismissed for a second-ball duck as Middlesex's County Championship clash with Durham finally got under way.
Strauss was bowled through the gate by Graham Onions from only the second ball of the morning and the match.
The entire first day was washed out at Lord's, although Durham won the toss and put Middlesex in between showers.
Strauss has been freed up to play three Championship games before the first Test against West Indies in May.
He struggled with the bat during the winter and averaged only 26.4 during the five Tests against Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
