[Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

[Eeyore]

Derbyshire 19/0 at lunch.

Sussex made 479 with Pujara getting 113 but good contributions from the tail to build the lead.

Yes, those nice 30s that make the difference. Batting looks well rounded this year.

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

Derbyshire 3 wickets down, Madsen gone now.

Literally the moment I sit down in the upper tier in the Football Stand at Headingley Brook pops a ball to gulley. I had been watching elsewhere in the ground for a while, so I'm reasonably confident it wasn't entirely my fault.

Mason Crane finished with 5 wickets.

The beer's over a pound cheaper here than at Derby. Admittedly it's Tetleys, but they didn't have any ale at all down there.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

[Pevenseagull]

What a lovely way to spend half time away from the blather of the Sky football pundits.

[Eeyore]

Joy abounds. My cup doth overflow

 

[Pevenseagull]

Sussex have won twice as many games as the rest of Division 2 have in total.

Serious question, is Pujara our best player in the last two decades? Given Goodwin and Mushy were around 20 years ago now

WHAT a player.

Second question - what on earth made him want to stay after last season?

In terms of performances for Sussex, he must be.

Yes

No idea. Maybe he likes pebbly beaches.

Second question - what on earth made him want to stay after last season?

Good question.
Runs per match he‘s probably our best ever.
Over a long period there’s Ed Joyce, Steve Magoffin and Ollie Robinson

second question - there’s a lot to like about playing for Sussex. It’s a Lovely place to live and (for Pujara) easy runs.

 

[Eeyore]

Sussex have won twice as many games as the rest of Division 2 have in total.

Only 2 wins short of the combined total for the last two seasons.

Easy to forget Sussex were only a win short of promotion last season. They are clearly stronger this year.
