The idea of playing Jordan up the innings might have worked better if we had totally reversed the order, Brown,Yardy Zaidi batting earlier might have saved us.
You are new to this aren't you ? The dominating factor in all your figures is missing remember, this is SUSSEX , therefore all probabilities are reduced to either polarised great play or crap play. We are currently running in Crap Play Mode. Hope this helps ?
I'm inclined to think that Yorkshire will bat on for a bit as a lead of 300 is a tad flimsy. Hopefully we will not be trying too hard to take that last wicket and restricting the runs which could knock 45 minutes off the time left we have to bat . Option 2 is for Yorkshire to declare overnight...
Looks like it. Ah well, maybe this is a deserved relegation, we can dump Robbo and half our squad and rebuild. It's getting tedious blowing out early of nearly every competition and having to scrape home each season.
Thank God we did not bat first yesterday, we would be right in it if we had....at least if we both lose we stay up and Hampshire have the best ground in the second division!
I think we only need 5 bonus points to be sure of another season of top division ineptitude? So, best release Hatchery and Jordan first on that notoriously dodgy first day Headingly pitch, let's face it, we won't get many bonus points batting first.
