[Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

[Titanic]

Lunch, Day Four.

Leicestershire 375-7 need 89 more to win.

Louis Kimber 191* (92 balls, 18 fours, 16 sixes) quite remarkable from someone who before today averages 24.65 with SR 52.26 in First Class cricket.

Did some Conservative MPs have bets on the result here, by any chance?

Well I doubt England will be back for Robinson now

Well I doubt England will be back for Robinson now

43 off one over, total crap.

 

[Si Gull]

Been out, checked the score, hoping for a couple more wickets....that I got, but the rest? The boys have had a shocker there. A loss from this morning's match position would be quite a feat, even for the Sussex of old.

Verges on suspicious, almost. Allegedly etc.

From the BBC.....

It is believed to be the most expensive over ever in all first-class cricket when there was no compliance from the bowler (i.e. bowling for a declaration).

Just watched the video of the over on twitter. What an absolute load of rubbish.

Edit: blimey. Robinson's overall figures right now - 16-2-70-1. Take the 43 run over out and that's really good economy (27 off 15).

Louis Kimber 203* (100 balls, 19 fours, 17 sixes)

The fastest double hundred in UK. Second fastest in history.

Pitiful from Sussex who should be embarrassed by this. Leicestershire nailed on to win this now.

Just 50 to win now.

They will have got these before the new ball, which is nice.
