Very relevant point though. You’re less likely to come off for bad light when the ball is being milked 1’s and 2’s more often compared to 7 overs of a ball being smacked at a fielders face in dusk. There’s endless approaches to winning a game of cricket. In the context of this game and the...

Of course they have just made the 400 now, and more often than not they have this season. But with the light fading and potentially losing time before bat friendly conditions, I don’t agree with the increased risk the last 7 batting overs had. Much more comfortable upping the rate and momentum...

Catching up to 400 with a handful of overs to go, has happened on at least 4 occasions this season from memory. Accumulating the runs to win the game being the first priority isn’t a horrible idea (and it’s worked)… But I don’t agree with the execution again. Doesn’t seem to be adjusted for the...

50 for Clark. Will be interesting if they decide to dash for the 4th batting bonus point in the poor light.

Unwelcome mini collapse making 2+ batting bonus points look further away.

Gloucestershire have an uncanny knack of defending low totals. Usually hustling Sussex! I suppose it’s better the devil you know, as that Warwickshire side looked very strong on paper.

Excellent night at Hove. Atmosphere was eclectic, best it’s been for a long time. Robbo bowling Salt first ball will live long in the memory!

I’d bite your hand off got a modest 300 here.

I got to see that at Hove on a few occasions...

The club stated it “costs money” to host a FC match away from Hove. We don’t have the full financial breakdown, but we can make reasonable assumptions. When Hove is set up for the whole 18 (19) FC home game season, costs are effectively spread over all those games. Each game will have its own...

Interviews with him, and his Brave captain Vince, made it pretty clear they’re just as frustrated by the ECB restricting his play time as Sussex are. The Brave team having 4 current Sussex and 4 former Sussex players is actually making it interesting to me. Just a shame I’d never head over to...

Should be fine as the core of the team will stay together for the 50 over cup, and I’m sure the experienced players getting a deserved rest (Simpson, Hughes & another?) will pick it up. Plus Robinson and Coles will keep themselves fit from playing some of the Hundred games.

Home QF to Lancashire. Just the 6 weeks to wait!

Amazing stuff. A very interesting game is brewing down at Hampshire too. Essex need 38 off 3 overs to qualify with 5 wickets left. A good comeback from them.

Glamorgan make their record T20 score. Somerset need 243 to win…

Glamorgan have got off to an absolute flyer. It’ll be typical Sussex if Somerset AND Sussex lose tonight.

Well if a bowling side can come crawling back into this game… It’s Surrey’s.

I’d love a few quick wickets. Just to shut the commentators up. An average power play being overhyped. Similar to our PP earlier.

159 needed to win for Somerset. Sussex will need something special to defend this here. Still, if we lose there’s still a chance Glamorgan have a day out at their home and Sussex win at home to Middlesex.

Don’t Sussex have a poor home QF record anyway?
