***County Championship Division 2, Glamorgan v Sussex, Colwyn Bay, 28-31 August***

How long until we lose Jofra to the international game

Current thinking is that he favours waiting for England over the West Indies; under the current regulations he'd have another three or four years of qualification to go before consideration. Would imagine he'll be featuring in one or more of the IPL/BigBash/CPL/BPL before then

Is he eligible to play for West Indies ? If he is then I'd be surprised they haven't had a chat by now at the very least .

 

[Scappa]

I thought he only had a year left after this

I also believed that Jordan is his agent, hence the signing for Sussex where he gets game time and managed/coached well

Signed a two year extension late last year. Contracted 'til the end of the 2019 season http://www.sussexcricket.co.uk/news-1/contract-latest-jofra-archer-pens-two-year-extension-with-sussex

Jordan is his agent? That's a weird one. Would've thought he'd be concentrating on playing. What do you reckon of our chances of promotion , iceberg ?

I thought he had an English Dad so wants to play for England

If we can play without too much rain interruptions we have a chance, but a bit like the 20 20 lots of teams chasing the one spot. We defiantly have winnable games in Northampton and Derbyshire, although Durham will be tough before Notts at home. Going to take three wins minimum I would imagine and some results going our way, and an Indian Summer to boot.

Think Sussex are really focused on this now and talk that MaGoffin may be back for the next game.

Ball nearly 45 overs old, wonder when we will bring Briggs into the attack

 

[Scappa]

148/6 Selman b Jordan 58

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Thats the key wicket

 

[Badger]

Match winning partnership in progress.

 

[Napier]

Thats the key wicket

Spoke too soon.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

I did indeed, bit of a disaster now, we need a flurry of wickets

 

[Scappa]

Hooray. 256/7. Cullen goes lbw Jordan 42

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Ah do I listen or stay tuned out - listening made the score worse

 

[Napier]

279 for 8. A shame about that 7th wicket partnership, would have been a good position.

 

[Scappa]

283/9 Carey c Wells b Robinson 13

 

[Scappa]

294 at close of innings - Meschede b Robinson 87. 4/46 for Robbo mk2 on return from injury.

 

[Luke93]

294, would take that before a ball was bowled tbh.

Let's hope Sussex don't do their usual 30-4 type score in the first innings.

 

[Napier]

A tricky 15 or so overs to bat before close. 50 for no more than 1 at close would be good. Here's hoping.......

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

50 opening partnership
