County Championship Division One, Sussex v Yorkshire at Hove, May 29-Jun 1

[Simster]

Bairstow feasting on Sussex pasties, croissants and bacon rolls. He is going to be fatter than his dad was by the time the Sussex "attack" have finished with him.

 

[Titanic]

A big, BIG, BIG wicket for Sussex... according to John Lees anyway.

I rather think Bairstow has done enough to see Yorkshire into an unassailable position.

193-5

 

[Titanic]

225-5, just 50 behind and closing rapidly, before they begin to pile on a lead... the remaining 40 overs should be plenty for them to enforce a result.

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

we are doomed.

I blame the butternut & coriander pies!!

 

[bobby smith]

we need another wicket NOW

 

[Phil B]

Question ; Why hasn't Wernars had a bowl this innings ?? (2 - 13 in 1st innings)

 

[Storer 68]

The problem with the Hove wickets atthe moment, as lancashire found out, is that by the last day it is very difficult to force a result. the re-laid wickets just seem to get slower and lower as the last day goes on and on....

 

[bobby smith]

Yardy 2 bowl now 4 me

 

[brightonmark1234]

can't see sussex getting the 5 wickets to win and its going to end in a draw

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

261/5 tea

 

[Pevenseagull]

if we pick up a couple shortly after tea I'm popping up fora beer













i.e. I'm going on the wagon

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Last chance of getting these wickets is the new ball, due in two overs

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Rachid out 1st ball after tea
COME ON

 

[Titanic]

How much of a lead (currently -14) will Yorkshire think they need to mop up the Sussex batters in the remaining overs?

With Parnell taking the new ball they will surely pile them on at a fair lick now.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Rachid out 1st ball after tea
COME ON

I think we may run out of time. Good performance by Yorks today but if they do get the draw then it'll been largely down to our inability to press them yesterday immediately pre and post tea.

 

[Simster]

How much of a lead (currently -14) will Yorkshire think they need to mop up the Sussex batters in the remaining overs?

70 or 80 I should think.

Clearly, it's still Yorkshire's to lose.

 

[Pevenseagull]

new ball due


DESTROY THEM

 

[Titanic]

John Lees... PLEASE STOP NOW!

The thought of you dressed only in your anorak at the laundrette in Shrewsbury is more than the listener should be asked to endure.

Is this anything to do with Jake Robinson?
