Team News anybody?! I don't hold high hopes for us this week, especially that we haven't won at Edgbaston for about 20 to 30 years!
Goodbye County Championship!

Only if Anyon isn't fit yet. If he is then Lewis Hatchett will be dropped, but I really hope not.

The terms of his loan from Warks are that he's not allowed to play in this game.

The Warks team looks ridiculously weak, we've been crippled by call-ups and injuries.
Trott and Bell are being rested, understandably. Woakes picked up a niggle playing in the Test match. Rankin is being rested, presumably at the behest of the ECB as he's in the ODI squad (although I'm miffed that Jordan has been allowed to play). Rikki Clarke is injured and Chris Wright is out for the season. We've got two bowlers in on loan (Maurice Chambers from Essex and Richard Jones from Worcestershire) and the latter is injured. Our only 'star men' available are Chopra, Barker and (arguably) Patel.

It won't matter, it is an unwritten Rule that Sussex lose to Warwickshire at Edgbaston.

Batting 1st on a sunny day might be a useful place to be.
Steady first hour for Sussex... 53-0 (14 overs)

We haven't won a championship game at Edgbaston since about 1584.
Is now the time to finally do it?

We need to if we stand any chance of catching Durham / Yorks ...
I guess we'd like Durham to win their current game, but with low batting points for both... ?
