These are the sides on Sporting Life;

MCC:
N R D Compton , A N Cook (capt) , O A Shah , A G R Loudon , Z K Sharif , A P R Gidman , S M Davies (wkt) , A Rashid , M J Hoggard , G Onions , S J Harmison
Sussex:
C D Nash , C D Hopkinson , M H Yardy (capt) , M W Goodwin , M J Prior (wkt) , R S C Martin-Jenkins , A J Hodd , L J Wright , O P Rayner , C J Liddle , R J Kirtley

I thought Mushy was playing.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Liddle - the next Jason Lewry?

 

[CHAPPERS]

That's a pretty inexperienced side eh? Will Prior and Hodd share keeping duties? Why isn't Grizzly playing?

 

[Mendoza]

Mushy is there, will be on SSN in a bit for an interview

 

[Uncle Buck]

Just not playing.

Boo.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Why isn't Grizzly playing?

Because he's a lazy sod?

no prize guessing which player (usually found in the slips) was rarely seen fielding in the friendlies last week....

Or;

Yardy to skipper but Lewry is still sidelined
By Bruce Talbot

Mike Yardy will captain Sussex against MCC at Lord's on Friday.

Chris Adams is not playing because his wife Sam is about to give birth to their third child.

Adams is not the only high-profile absentee in Sussex's last game before the start of their Championship defence against Kent a week today.

Kirtley knocks their lad in the nuts!

'Their lad' is Owais Shah.

The commentators keep mentioning Mushy... but he doesn't appear on the Cricinfo scorecard ??
