Mushy out.
Mushtaq Ahmed b Amin 21 (31m 25b 4x4 0x6) SR: 84.00
21 runs in 25 balls is good though.
Batting Mushy!

Batting batting Mushy 
A lead of 100'ish is pretty good news I reckon - early wickets and we'll be well on top!
Come on Sussex!
Come on Sussex!
Chris Adams admitted today he is suffering his worst crisis of confidence in his 15-year career.
The Sussex skipper's dismal Championship form continued yesterday with a second successive nought against Leicestershire at Grace Road.
Adams has made just 256 runs in 15 innings this season and within minutes of his dismissal he was in the nets with director of cricket Peter Moores trying to get things right.
He said: "There have been times before when I haven't scored many runs, but I can't remember feeling as low in confidence as I do at the moment.
"It has been tough because as captain I want to contribute as much as I can to the success we are having this season. But although I have scored runs in one-day cricket something hasn't felt right for a while.
"I've always been a positive person though and I will get out of it, it's a case of when rather than if."
416/9
Nice to see Lewry has come out to bat despite his injury, dont think we'll see him bowl though

The pitch must be turning, or there is some uneven bounce if BBM is into the attack after just 7 overs.
