[In The Rough]

Sussex to secure the win with about 5 overs to spare tommorow evening!

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Nash playing T20 again

Sussex to secure the win with about 5 overs to spare tommorow evening!

Approximately 45 overs to go tonight.

96 minus the 5 tomorrow makes around 135 overs to get to that point and less than 240 runs to get, that is going to be a painful day to watch tomorrow then.

It will be over way before then. One way or tother......weather permitting, forecast is good BTW

 

[Simster]

Sussex have limped to 47/0 now at just over 6 an over.

All part of the Somerset plan obviously. Have them slogging like idiots and the wickets will come.

yes and we seem to be falling for it like lemmings

 

[Mackenzie]

Cruel Somerset just toying with us.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Sri Lankans taking a nice little pasting. 100/5, still 393 behind.

Our strong second string all fighting it out for Bresnan's place and sharing the wickets, expect Finn but it's probably less helpful to him at this earlyish time of the season.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

71-0.

There is nothing more certain than Nash getting out with the job less than half done...

followed by a calamitous batting collapse from our so-called middle order.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Sri Lankans now 6 down. Dernbach (whose nickname is Dirtbag) has got three, I wonder if he'll be chucked in for the test. Would think we'll go with Shahzad though.

[Bold Seagull]

Anyone going over for the evening session? Am I right in saying it's free entry after Tea for championship games?

He won't get any more*



*Let's just hope I've got in, in time to save him, from simmo's ridiculous post

50 up, Hans. It's got to be recognised with a raised bat.

50 up, Hans. It's got to be recognised with a raised bat.

That's fine, but only with an acknowledgement that they were LUCKY runs, and that he's sure to get out without scoring any more...

 

[Mackenzie]

Sussex 105/0 at tea, require a further 167 runs with 10 wickets remaining.....as if!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Not a chance.

Oh yeah, been listening, all of the edge. He will be out straight away after T

 

[Badger]

This innings has got 'textbook collapse' written all over it

 

[SirElliotBennett]

Don't know how we are in a position to win this after a collapse off 177 first innings. Still, we'll probably collapse again

 

[simmo]

50 for Edmund
