[Cricket] **** Specsavers County Cricket Championship Division Two Sussex vs. Middlesex at Hove ****

[jakarta]

Wot no thread?

The Middle won the toss and elected to BAT.

Two early wickets but rebuilding with Malan now in.

62-2 after 22 overs (has to be said Ritchie Benaud style)

 

[Brovion]

Ah, glad I checked, I was just about to start one!

At least we're not Yorkshire (50-9)

 

[Brovion]

67-3 now. Somebody's just been bowled by one of our blokes. (Sorry for the lack of detail!)

Commentary.


The Middx commentators are annoying me already! Sounds like a decent crowd at the county ground.

Ollie Robinson - he has all three to fall.

Robinson again.

Yorkshire bowled out for 50. Root gone first ball. Cook already out for Essex. Mental.

 

[Mackenzie]

Malan OUT

76/5

Robinson gets a Michelle!

 

[Gwylan]

Essex 2-2

I can see a points deduction heading Essex's way

 

[MJsGhost]

76/5

Quick-fire Michelle for Ollie

 

[studio150]

If Sussex had held all their catches the Middlesex innings could almost be over

 

[Brovion]

Essex 2-2

I can see a points deduction heading Essex's way

It's a joke isn't it? And people wonder why we're shit at Tests.

 

[MJsGhost]

Malan OUT

76/5

Robinson gets a Michelle!

Beat me to it!

Go outside to cut down some trellis and two wickets fall, after Lunch I'm tempted to STAIN the new trellis and see if that has a similar effect on Mr Robinson...

It's been a cracking day for English batters. Thus far, we have:-

Root 0
Bairstow 7
Cook 0
Westley 0
Duckett 26
Stoneman 28
Malan 13

Whilst the old guard are faring better:-

Trescothick 55no
Bell 28no
Carberry 45no

 

[MJsGhost]

Now he’s had 4 overs’ rest, is it time to bring Ollie back on to bag the other 5?

 

[Brovion]

Ah well, normal service is resumed. Middlesex now well on their way to 500.

BTW I see Cricinfo says the match is taking place in Brighton. Whereabouts in Brighton I wonder?
