I agree
It's looking up

They are the historically worst side

 

[Surf's Up]

Nash needs to start getting some runs pretty damn quick.

Nash needs to start getting some runs pretty damn quick.

The curse of the captaincy continues

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

Captaining Sussex right now must be a pretty onerous job !!!

 

[murciagull]

Game finely poised.

Leicester 141 in front with 5 wickets left

Another 3 so far for Archer

 

[LamieRobertson]

Archer bags another

 

[LamieRobertson]

Is Philander injured..he's not bowled in this second innings

Ooh, this is getting interesting. Yesterday I was working out what we needed to avoid the follow-on. Today I'm thinking what's a gettable 4th innings target: 220, 230...?
