Sussex v Wancashire (2nd - 5th Aug)

[Trigger]

Popping along tomorrow afternoon for some enjoyable cricket before heading off to the fans forum for some laughable spin.

Great comeback from a really bad start. Just hope we can rattle up the runs and try and limit Lancs bowling points. Worried about Hants beating Kent though - they'll be right in the mix then!

I could handle losing the title to Lancashire, but losing out to Hampshire. My blood is boiling at the thought of it!

 

[McShane79]

Big style! At least we're playing them at Hove as well at the end of the month. Be good to wipe the smile off of Warney's face!

 

[SeagullTim]

Went yesterday, thought it was over at 7 for 2, but it was great to see the comeback by Prior and RMJ. Pleased to see Yardy bat well.

Anyone going today?

 

[Trigger]

Anyone going today?

Providing the rain holds off I shall be there for 3pm(ish).

 

[CHAPPERS]

Moved onto 293/5 and Cork isn't bowling this morning....

 

[McShane79]

302/5 - another bonus point which means we're back on top of the table for the time being!

 

[CHAPPERS]

Going along very nicely this morning.

323/5

Prior 93*
RMJ 72*

 

[Man of Harveys]

Now's the time for Matty to show what he's made of....





.although I fear it's going to be putty.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

seem to be going for quick runs, maybe declaration at lunch if enough scored?

 

[Uncle Buck]

100 for Prior.

Going for the 400 by 130 overs.


Batting Matty........

 

[McShane79]

Who is this Read fella anyway?

 

[bardo]

CMJ gone for 73 - well-played sir! Keep going Matty.

Dominic Cork returned to hospital on Thursday morning for further treatment to the severe cut he suffered to his left little finger during the first day of Lancashire's Liverpool Victoria County Championship clash with title rivals Sussex.

Cork also dislocated the finger while taking the catch which dismissed Michael Yardy, so medics decided against stitching the wound last night.

Lancashire were hoping to have the 34-year-old former England all-rounder back at Hove - where Sussex resume on 282 for five - as soon as possible on Thursday.

Cork was extremely effective on Wednesday, recording figures of 2-21 from 14 overs before leaving the field shortly before tea.

But doubts remain over whether he will be able to field and hold the bat, with the left hand being his top hand.

I can't beleive he'll play any more part, especially with that bat. If he does I can see Arafat aiming straight for his fingers.

Well he just got Matty out...

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Seems like he will as he's got Prior out for 112.

It always happens when I tune into Sky, whether it's Saturdays and Albion concede whenever I turn Soccer Saturday on, or Sussex when i follow on the net.

We've lost 2 wickets for about 10 runs since I logged on.


Hands up, it's MY fault.

 

[CHAPPERS]

You can't keep that man down.
