***LV CC, Durham v Sussex, Riverside Chester-le-Street, 19-22 September 10.30 starts****

[Surf's Up]

I'm glad Burgess is in for Brown, hope he does well.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Radio just said our average opening partnership of the season is just under 17 runs. Something we need to boost if we want to get promoted next year.

May as well put this in Childish Ramblings

and to rubber stamp that, if the regular Sussex were swapped with the regular Albion team what would the batting order be and who would play where? That is ridiculously childish but possibly more interesting than this game.

I would have Sussex:

1. Propper
2. March
3. Knockeart
4. Hemed
5. Stephens
6. Gross
7. Ryan (W)
8. Suttner
9 Dunk
10. Duffy
11. Bruno.

I cannot do those football formation things so will leave the Sussex footie team to others.

Back in the 70s, I remember the Albion playing a cricket match at Sussex - may even have done it twice. It was after Graham Cross had left - as an ex-county pro, he'd have been useful. I do remember that Ken Tiler looked like a real cricketer, he'd clearly played at a decent level, and Lawro looking useful too.

They'd struggle to do that now: can't see Bruno, Tomer and Knocky being able to hold a bat - although I bet Ryan's played a bit.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Agreed the big cheque book from the Oval do not want him burnt out for next season. He will join Bros there.

Why not bothered about Saffer and Evans?

Jofra very likely to be with us at Hove next season.

Unless we're winning trophies then my only real pleasure comes from younger and more home nurtured players doing well.

Wells has just passed 1000 runs for the season: well done Luke. He'll probably be the only Sussex player to do it

Izquierdo is a top quality spin bowler by all accounts .

Duffy to open surely, if his batting is anything like his defending then nothing is getting through. Play the Boycott role at the top of the order and see off the new ball.

Obviously.

He's a BOWLER.

 

[Gwylan]

That's brilliant - could I love Bruno even more?

(although I'm a bit concerned about how you got the video, are you stalking him?)

Brilliant well done Luke, great effort considering he has not played every game. Lets hope it helps him push on.

 

[Perry Milkins]

Did you see the way he rolled his fingers over the seam. The guy is quality all the way through.

I wonder if B C Brown would have fielded first on that strip?

Mate..the extra bounce he would generate steaming in from the Sea end...'Big Bird Duffy'

Excuse me we are discussing how the Albion team would line up at Cricket. can you stop reporting the score of a match which is meaningless?

Coach Davis has sent a message out with Drinks. Both batsmen to hold back and score slowly encouraging Durham to attack us at which time we will counter attack with pace on the ball.
