Lets hope it stops raining and we can get 30 mins cricket which should be enough.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Looking good for a hard for earned draw.

 

[GT49er]

Pissing down and they're off

Odds on getting back on again today? (Remember, this is Sussex with a chance to win......!)

 

[Taybha]

Think Palace have more chance TBH

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

BBC weather forecast has light rain all afternoon

 

[Petee]

This would be ultimate Sussex if we don't win this due to the rain

Amazing game at Hampshire. Needing 180 odd, Hampshire are 16-4! Essex were bowled out for 70 odd in the first innings

31-6 now!

 

[Napier]

Back in to check the score - good to see a couple more wickets down, but not so good with the weather. Hopefully there'll be a bright spell for an hour or so before the day's end.

 

[Simster]

31-6 now!

37/7

Oh dear.

Might be able to get some overs in between this break if they can get the covers off....



Taking tea now.

 

[BensGrandad]

Dont think that we will need many overs probably 6 or 7.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I'm sure the ground staff will be rushing around to get the game on.

 

[Postman Pat]

Stopped raining.......Covers coming off........

 

[studio150]

Goody 1 wicket needed and probably will have to take it quickly before the rain returns

 

[Petee]

37/7

Oh dear.

50-8!

 

[Postman Pat]

Goody 1 wicket needed and probably will have to take it quickly before the rain returns

3.45 re-start..... if no more rain.

It's only a bit of rain, get them out there and finish the game!

 

[bhafc99]

Imagine if this game actually mattered, that promotion could have come down to this...

Ah well.
