[Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

[Gwylan]

Little wobble over

 

[hans kraay fan club]

THREE to win...

TWO...

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Boring game cricket isn't it !?!

 

[ManOfSussex]

Gloucestershire win by 4 wickets. Brilliant stuff.

 

[Eeyore]

Gubby Allen, Bill Edrich, Dennis Compton, Mike Brearley.. your boys took one hellava beating

 

[CHAPPERS]

f*** yeah!

 

[Gwylan]

That's it, Sussex can smell promotion now

If they beat Gloucs, they should be preparing an absolute road for the Middlesex game

 

[Papa Lazarou]

That's it, Sussex can smell promotion now

That's key. 3 into 2 promotion places made it more complicated. Still a way to go, but Middlesex need to win 2 games to catch us, and we need to probably lose both.

Sussex 200
Yorkshire 179
Middx 164

Plus we play them last match.

 

[Luke93]

21 ahead of Yorkshire and 36 ahead of Middlesex.

A draw is all we need in our final game to guarantee promotion

 

[Eeyore]

That's key. 3 into 2 promotion places made it more complicated. Still a way to go, but Middlesex need to win 2 games to catch us, and we need to probably lose both.

Sussex 200
Yorkshire 179
Middx 164

Plus we play them last match.

And we could still lose both and get promoted if we took 13 bonus points from them. One draw should be enough.

 

[Eeyore]

Have to feel sorry for Somerset. It's about time they won a Championship.

8,000 people watching the stream for that at the moment

 

[Albion Robster]

What a declaration by Gloucestershire yesterday!

 

[Luke93]

And we could still lose both and get promoted if we took 13 bonus points from them. One draw should be enough.

Even 12 is enough as we’ll have more wins than Middlesex if tied on points. Also unlikely Middlesex get all 48 in September. Exciting times ahead!

A greedy wish, but I’d love the title mathematically wrapped up next week and Yorkshire to then miss out on promotion the following week.

Just like the pitch they prepared for us at Lords earlier in the year.

 

[Shaktarman]

So we need 12 points for sure? Someone said 6 earlier in the thread..

 

[Eeyore]

Max Gloucs can get is 12 more than we have now.

 

[Bombardier]

So we need 12 points for sure? Someone said 6 earlier in the thread..

Pretty sure it's 6 for promotion. Let's just go and beat Gloucestershire, wrap up the title and be done with it.

 

[Badger]

So we need 12 points for sure? Someone said 6 earlier in the thread..

Yes. We're 36 points ahead of Middlesex with a maximum of 48 available.

 

[Gwylan]

Just like the pitch they prepared for us at Lords earlier in the year.

Exactly. And that could have cost them promotion - they had to be bold and bottled it

 

[Gwylan]

Yes. We're 36 points ahead of Middlesex with a maximum of 48 available.

And as Middlesex are playing Derby, they're going to get close to 24 for that game
