I am going to write and complain about this 3 day cricket Sussex are playing. If they would care to read the description of the matches - THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE 4 DAY GAMES. Come on Sussex, play the game and stop ripping off us, the public (who pay your wages blah blah blah!)
If I was running...
46-0 for nothing and umpire has had enough and ordered the players off the pitch to take tea and save the Sussex public from this barbaric display!
THey may, just may allow them back on if Sussex promise to play properly and let all 11 batsmen have a second go! Sounds like they are suggesting...
As soon as one wicket goes I expect the next batsman to come out waving a white flag rather than his bat to stop this debacle from continuing!
16 very very lucky runs so far.
I have just returned to the office having being doing a rain dance for the last 10 minutes! Rain and Snow is our only hope to prevent another embarrassing result!
61 to win, I expect you could get a 100-1 at most bookies if you wanted a ridiculous bet on us winning!
So Leic ONLY 187 behind us with a MASSIVE 8 wickets in hand. Defeat looms for this Sussex team that can only be described as second rate in the BOTTOM division of English cricket!
Its good of Leicester to make a game of it and give us a bit of a head start. Have they not seen how we really bat and bowl? A 278 first innings lead is just not enough, if they had given us a lead of say 350 then it may, just may have been a contest!
I will plump for Leic to win by 378...
Rana has done the right thing and got out to let somebody come in and bat properly. Rana basically wasted 113 balls that somebody decent would have scored 200+ runs from rather than his weak 101.
What worries me is that we have been relegated and in the 4 matches played so far our players have clearly not watched the opposition and learnt how to play Division 2 cricket!
Will the last person out the ground tonight please turn off the lights and had the keys to somebody who knows how to...
I expect the club have told the stewards to turn away those that turned up with banners to protest against our lack lustre cricket so far this season, hence just one man and his dog in the ground for the 11am start.
Hopefully Sussex forfeited the game over night to save the embarrassment of going back out on the pitch today in-front of the Sussex crowd baying for blood!
Hopefully the crowd will be chanting "what a load of rubbish" to the Sussex players as they warm up!
So Leicester will soon be heading towards maximum batting points! I waited to lunch time before I checked out the latest Sussex debacle! What is this 2 wickets each nonsense, when is somebody going to bowl properly and take 8 or 9 wickets? I just dont see why we accept these half hearted...
