Sussex vs Surrey - FPT

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Anyone going to Eaton Road today?
2:40 start; Hoppo in the squad and some lightweight called Collymore.
Panama hats and some factor 20+ I think.

I'll be there from fourish. Without Wright and Prior we look a bit light batting wise

 

[Mendoza]

I cant make it today, and still to make my debut this season :badfan:

 

[Uncle Buck]

Please can they bring Aga in for Lewry / Liddle.

I see Hamilton Brown could play today as well.

If him and RMJ are batting together, are we going to have the poshest batting line up ever?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Poshest since Ranjitsinji

 

[CHAPPERS]

First game of the season for me, hooray!

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Poshest since Ranjitsinji

[Withdean Wanderer]

No Collymoore apparently




Sussex coach Mark Robinson wants some of his lesser lights to share the load today in the absence of Matt Prior and Luke Wright.

Both men are on England Lions' duty against New Zealand and miss Sussex's floodlit Friends Provident Trophy tie against Surrey Lions at Hove today (2.40pm).

Andrew Hodd will replace Prior behind the stumps while Rory Hamilton-Brown could make his debut against his former county after making a miraculous recovery from a knee injury which left him on crutches at the weekend.

advertisementRobinson said: "My challenge to the guys is can you step up in a game like this and so something special?' "We can't keep relying on the likes of (Chris) Adams and (Murray) Goodwin.

"We need different players to win us a game and properly influence what goes on."

Although he has been named in the squad, Corey Collymore is unlikely to make his debut.

The West Indian fast bowler is still waiting to hear that the ECB have ratified his Kolpak registration but Robinson believes the game has come too early for Collymore.

He said: "Corey only arrived late on Tuesday, spent yesterday in London and hasn't done any training yet, we haven't had a chance to see how he is yet."

Sussex (from): Nash, Hopkinson, Adams, Goodwin, Yardy, Hamilton-Brown, Hodd, Martin-Jenkins, Smith, Kirtley, Lewry, Aga, Rayner, Collymore.

Looking forward to another day in the sun watching the mighty Sharks. Beer prices are a bit steep these day though.

Hurrah, what a great day for cricket, heading off for a 2.30 deck chair choice dilemea.

Shame about Collymores registration, still the swede beating will make him all the stronger.

last time i went it was £3.50 a can of nasty carling, has it gone up even further? are they still cracking down on people bringing their own cans into the ground or can you still do it if you're cunning?

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

[Fourteenth Eye]
