Can't wait to retire and watch matches like these with a nice cup of tea and a slice of cake. Only 20 more years to go....

Sussex declare 353-6, leading by 404... with 7 overs left this evening

No pie chucking, proper bowling please

No cake either in 20 years time, Soylent Green if you are lucky.

Probably will be County Towers with a plaque where the wicket was.

lead down to 399 now, we're doomed.

Ian Botham just mentioned Philip Salt as a possible England opener to replace Jennings. Get rid of a leftie for a right hander

 

[TSB]

Just been down for an interesting final hour.
Some ridiculous streaky hitting from Archer and Brown and excellent spell with the ball from Robinson. Deserved a wicket.
Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Just got back: I think Archer used all his luck for the season, one of the streakiest innings I've seen.

Great knock from Salt though, he looks on fire right now

400 really ought to be more than enough. We can comfortably achieve that and leave 10 overs to bowl tonight. A draw is little use - the table is such that you've got to give every chance of the win - giving Derbyshire a glimmer of hope is probably no bad thing.

HUGE day in the wider context of the season. Come on sussex!

Plenty of cloud cover at the moment.
Fingers crossed for a Sussex win.

We'll need help from the weather, the pitch is offering nothing to bowlers: no sign of any uneven bounce.

Hope Derbyshire go for it, we'll have no chance if they decide to block it out.

Come on you get cocky when we've bowled them out with 3 balls to spare

 

[Common as Mook]

Is it free entry on Day 4??

We need some kind of "smug" emoji here.

TBF, 400 was such an obvious target, that it doesn't even deserve any smugness.

Does anyone know the ticket price for the last day, it's not on the website?
