My main observation is that there is a very decent sized crowd here. Perhaps this is a bit of an Ashes bounce or maybe a Hundred protest vote.
Whatever it is, it’s great to see.
It’s a lovely day down here and a nice atmosphere.

Sussex Sharks vs Durham: Match report | Sussex Cricket
Memorable hitting from Alex Lees, David Bedingham and Graham Clark propelled Durham to a record List A total of 427 for nine at Hove, setting up a 132-run win against Sussex Sharks – later bowled out for 295 – in the Metro Bank One-Day Cup. A good-sized crowd of more than 2,000 saw Durham...

Well played Sussex - once Somerset had scored 300+ I wasn’t optimistic.
There is such a dearth of coverage about this competition while the other nonsense is on

Another defeat and Farbrace is already looking to leave; https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics...interested_director_of_cricket_post_kent.html
It is not surprising he is willing to walk out.
It’s an impossible job at Sussex.
You plug one hole and another appears.
Not sure that any holes have been plugged. 3rd rate loan bowlers for 2/3 matches isn’t the answer.
The odd cameo performance from Carter, Coles, Clark, Haines, H-P and Alsop won’t get us anywhere.
There’s only Pujara.
And what a waste of time/money Smith was.
Not sure that Farbrace has improved anything other than highlighting and consolidating our position as a 3rd rate Div 2 team, in all forms.

Not sure if Finn's contract expires at the end of the season but if it does, surely that won't be renewed and will free up some decent money in the wages budget.

As if by magic, Steven Finn has just announced his retirement from professional cricket.

Surely he did that when he signed for Sussex...
There has been progress in the championship - we are much harder to beat .
Fair enough though, he has hardly turned the ship around.
Who could?
Agreed. After the recent poor performances in the 50 overs comp my Sussex glass is less than half full. We’ve done ok in the Championship, haven’t lost and with 3 matches left could still finish 2nd. However our bowling attack is so weak that we could lose all 3 and only be saved from the wooden spoon by Yorks’ points deduction.
