[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Remarkably similar performance from Sussex to that against Notts at Hove last week - win the toss, bat, erratic perfomance from the upper order, don't get enough runs. If Middx get anything like a decent 1st innings lead then I can see us losing comfortably again.
Still, it's the Horsham Festival next week and the Surrey tosserflids from Wednesday at the Cricketfield.

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

Middx 6/1

 

[Badger]

Magoffin strikes! Obviously Middlesex are just toying with us.

 

[Simster]

I would suggest the 6 runs off the first over would signal more about the way the match is heading than one lucky wicket.

32/1 will rapidly become 320/1

 

[Kumquat]

Definitely going to watch tomorrow now. Just wish the f***ing sun would come out again.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Middx 97/1

An inept batting performance and an inert bowling performance at the home of cricket.

Come back now. Embarrass us no further.

 

[Simster]

109/1 now. Predictable scenes from our BowlSPACKS.

We're right back in it.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Anyon strikes!

3 down!

 

[Simster]

152/3...


Now with Test batsman Eoin Morgan pairing with Chris Rogers who is eyeing a big ton on 71, we can expect these two to put the game out of our reach.




Edit:
Tea: 159/3

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Wickets like buses....

121 behind with 7 wickets in hand, need a good evening session

and that's exactly what Middlesex look to be having
