Official: Sussex vs Kent (County Championship)

[Trigger]

I see an all to familiar pattern here...

 

[Moshe Gariani]

I see an all to familiar pattern here...

mmm... certainly didn't need our hardhitting middle order all to misfire like that

a decent contribution from either Yasir or Rayner would be very welcome

 

[Mr Blobby]

I see an all to familiar pattern here...

You staring at your wallpaper again? I told you thats not good for you!

Keep the faith

come on

keep the faith, Mushy will......mmmm Naved willl mmmm we need Chris Waller back to bamboozle them with his spin and John "trouters" Barclay back for well spoken encouragement!

269-7 Arafat gone for 31, Yardy 90 no

England now 275-3 (Am I allowed to mention this on a Sussex thread?)

I reckon Giles Cheatle and Andy Clarke would see off Kent on this track...

 

[Moshe Gariani]

YES or NO...

will we get 300...?

I say YES

 

[Moshe Gariani]

285/7 (BBC ahead of Cricinfo...)

285-7

Yardy 100 no

[Basil Fawlty]

Well played Michael Yardy.

 

[Finchley Seagull]

YES or NO...

will we get 300...?

I say YES

I would say yes!

306/7

Rayner 22 off 28 balls with 4 fours.

Good late order resistance

 

[Trigger]

Will we get 400?...

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Will we get 400?...

probably not - what pattern are you seeing at the moment...?

Rayner out stumped

 

[Trigger]

probably not - what pattern are you seeing at the moment...?

Rayner out stumped

The usual stubborn tailend performance that we only see after a middle order collapse... Why oh why can we never put the top middle and bottom performances together... Still, musn't grumble, two outta three ain't bad!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Four batting points.

Kirtley not out 22 WTF

 

[Scoffers]

excellent rear guard action there, any bets on getting 400 tomorrow?

 

[itszamora]

Kirtley not out 22 WTF

Exactly what I was thinking!

 

[larus]

Some good partnerships as the end there. Be nice to sneak past 400 and put Kent under pressure on this 'bad' pitch eh!!!
