Sussex (Championes) v Leicestershire Day Three

[Lord Bracknell]

Leicestershire 179 & 38/2 (7 ov)
Sussex 614/4d

Leicestershire trail by 397 runs with 8 wickets remaining

Can this game get any better?

We've seen Mushy's 100th wicket of the season.
We've won our first ever Championship.
We've seen Murray Goodwin post the highest ever score in the history of Sussex cricket.

And Oranjeboom prices drop to a pound a pint!

If you can't be at Hove to see the Championship Trophy presented at the end of play today, keep in touch with progress and developments on this thread.

The NSC Official forecast for today is that Sussex will possibly win this match.

 

[CHAPPERS]

f***ing work is rubbish, there's much better things to do today than sit at work trying to sober up. Crap.

 

[Trigger]

I just hope we dont bowl Leics out before 4pm, dont want to miss happy hour...

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Provided we can restrict the Leicestershire second innings to less than 700, I think this game is ours for the taking.



Currently 52/2

[Lord Bracknell]

69/4
BJ Hodge c Ambrose b Lewry 1

I'm gonna have to hurry to get there for the end!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I guess that now we've got the Championship, the Committee will have decided that we can't afford any more bonus payments for another wicket by Mushy.

I expect he's going to spend the entire innings standing at the boundary and talking to spectators.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Lucky Brackers.

ps Re the ticket for tomorrow, where shall i meet you to pick it up?

Re the ticket for tomorrow, where shall i meet you to pick it up?

Easiest will be at the Sportsman at, say, 2.30-ish.

 

[pevenseagull is spartacus]

Brad Hodge hasn't had a particularly nice couple of days - like I give a s***

lost his top score record for the season

scored a total of 36 runs across two innings and went for 51 runs off of his six overs and is going to get relegated

 

[CHAPPERS]

Easiest will be at the Sportsman at, say, 2.30-ish.

Marvellous.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Now 126/4

Excellent. It looks like a whole afternoon might beckon.

Come on Leicester!

 

[Football Genius aka FG]

I FVCKING HATE CRICKET even the official sites got a pic and scrawl on there thought id got the w@nky cricket site for a minute a real mans game is football

 

[CHAPPERS]

FG=Twat.

 

[Martlet]

What's the betting the sussex chief exec's had a word in Adams' ear along the lines of...


"look Chris, perhaps Mushy needs a rest. At £400 a wicket, how about you let the others have a go instead?"

Even Cottey's bowled 4 overs today!!!

 

[Marc]

need to finish it off today or early tomorrow so they can take the trophy to Withdean for me to look at

 

[CHAPPERS]

203-4, this is a disgrace!

 

[London Calling]

you can see what club had the beers last night...
