County Championship Division One, Yorkshire v Sussex at Leeds

[Everest]

132/6

Tea time

 

[Nathan]

At this rate the match will be over today. I guess the players will be back in Sussex tonight so they can fit in some extra practice in the nets tomorrow.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Re that last wicket, I'm reminded of the excellent Australian 12th Man programme, and some of the great names they came up with for the Pakistan and Sri Lankan players.

Azeem Rafiq? Azeem Fustbal more like!

 

[Mr Blobby]

I expect the Yorkshire players are laughing and sipping champagne at tea, hopefully our players are in the dressing room getting a b*ll*cking from the management team. Making a game last just 3 days is not on.

Let's hope so.

Every year it is the same. They go out to Saudi Arabia and practice T20 against a bunch of baggage handlers and then come back here expecting to be able to perform in 4 day cricket and English conditions. I was hoping a change at the top might make a difference but it seems like business as usual. #underprepared

Unlike Nottinghamshire who I saw clubbing in Barbados two weeks ago. That Hales and his little mate Taylor out til all hours on the jager bombs. Thats proper preparation for County Cricket in my book.

Jacques looks set to carry on all day long.

I reckon he'll be CAMPING on the square tonight.

Maybe Monty can smuggle in Dr Nookey under his turban?

I think we can claim that one after a referral to the third umpire.

CRASH! Magoffin's final ball of the over is punished again.

Any danger of a contribution from Panesar in this match...?

It certainly never did the likes of Beefy or Gunner any harm. So-called "sports science" has a lot to answer for...

Credit to our overseas import who seems determined to at least try and make a game of it.

No

Carnage at Carnegie??

Carnage at Carnegie??

Yes, that works well.

The Goff snaffled 57 @ 20 last season.

6/61 so far.

Sports science - dont get me started. I have heard that that Robinson believes in what I like to call mumbo jumbo. Fred Trueman never had a sports scientist up his arse all day.

 

[fisons]

Can somebody please ask Robinson what is the point of Panesar? By my sums he has taken no wickets and scored no runs in this match. A complete waste of space.
