*Lancashire v Sussex, Aigburth, County Championship - Division One, 12-15 April 2012*

[Postman Pat]

It's clear that Lancashire are allowing us to get a lead so they can get some batting practice in and score 600 in the second innings. They could bowl us out whenever they feel like it.

Morning everyone

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Good start for us

Still struggling to get near that first batting point.

166/3

 

[Taybha]

See the Lancs slips are cheating again

 

[Taybha]

zoiks !!!!!! did he just say Yardy and Joyce have both been dropped in the shit

 

[Simster]

174/3 with these two so far adding 35 more than the entire Lancs team put together.

All part of the Champions plan I suspect.

[Horsham Gull]

WICKET...Joyce is caught by Moore off the bowling of Procter for 64 and Sussex 179/4 #countycricket

 

[Trigger]

199 all out.

 

[Horsham Gull]

Slow Joe in now

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

199 all out.

The sunshines making you a bit optimistic.

 

[Simster]

199 all out.

I'll go for 213 all out, with Lancs batsmen turning the deficit round in double quick time for 0 or 1 wicket.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Slow Joe in now

Take a slow 30 here, especially if Yardy can stay in.

 

[Trigger]

I'll go for 213 all out, with Lancs batsmen turning the deficit round in double quick time for 0 or 1 wicket.

We'll NEVER get a batting bonus point, we're Sussex.

 

[Simster]

I may have been optimistic - Saj Mahmood has joined the attack. We have no chance against world class seamers like him.

Reminds me of my favourite ever cricket commentary...

Paul Allott: "Someone call the plumbers, Saj is leaking again".

 

[Triggaaar]

199 all out.

Wanker. I didn't realise that was a prediction, I thought that was you updating us on the score
