[Cricket] Kent v Sussex Royal London One Day Cup Today 14-00 Canterbury

[Taybha]

Morning Everyone , Sussex 6pts 7th take on top of the table Kent 9pts today , with a win we could go into 2nd spot , if we lose ,the odds are we will not make the quarter finals , in theory all the teams apart from mighty Surrey 2pts can still go through in our group but in reality a win today is vital for Sussex , even a washout would do us a favour though with our inferior run rate in comparison to the other teams its best the sun shines all day on another Sussex win

[Barry M]

Hampshire are Leeds of the cricket world most of there games are televised.

[Change at Barnham]

It's bizarre that with the loan system as it is that Tredwell is playing for Kent today and tomorrow he'll like be travelling up to Scarborough with the Sussex players.

Has he been signed for another month?

 

[Taybha]

Kent 39-1 after 8.3 overs , Hatchet with the wicket caught Brown

 

[Taybha]

Kent 179-3 off of 32 overs , 300+ beckons

 

[8ace]

4/190

 

[8ace]

5/221

 

[Taybha]

274-6 4 overs remain

 

[chimneys]

278-8 3 overs to go! Go Yasir!

Tredwell went for 1.

 

[Taybha]

Kent finish on 299 all out but will probably be given a further 6 runs due to a slow Sussex over rate

 

[Taybha]

Hmmm Sussex have now been set 284 to win from 45 overs which seems harsh on sussex in the extreme , if my maths is correct Ducky Lewis reckons we would of only scored 16 runs off the last 5 overs .

Just don't understand this Duckworth Lewis thing. Bit like when we got stuffed by 20 runs the other night by Middlesex and yet they only scored 80 off 20 overs!! I know the key for them wasn't losing wickets and our earlier collapse but still seemed very harsh.

 

[Keeping The Dream Alive.]

Does seem harsh. Will be pissed off if we lose this by a few runs.

 

[Taybha]

It stinks , anyway 42-1 after 6.2 overs Wright gone

 

[enterprise]

Losing Wright early again could be critical, really need Cachopa to turn his normal 30's into a big score today. He's got to be due one?!
