Spoilt for options to follow this. 5extra, Sky or if I had been better organised I could have trecked nearly a mile to the ground. Instead I'm following it on the BBC website

Gwylan · Jul 12, 2017

Only just realised that Sussex dropped a batsman for a bowler ... that worked well

Sussex are shite, absolute shite.

Albion Robster · Jul 12, 2017

Sussex fielding was utter dogshite tonight.
Danny Briggs would struggle to catch a cold in a snotty school playground!

We'll start winning matches for fun as soon as a quarter final spot is out of reach.

Bloody better beat Kent a week on Sunday. I'm going, and taking Mrs P to her first cricket match of any description.

Brainless selection by Sussex - there's little point in playing an extra bowler in T20, they're there as fodder. I assume Van Zyl's injured but what's wrong with Finch? Or Wells (who has developed a new aggressive persona in FC cricket)? I'd pick four bowlers (Jordan, Wiese, Briggs and Beer), fill in with Nash and Wells (and Van Zyl when fit) and seven batters. And where's Robinson? He's playing in the Seconds, he'd be useful too.

BTW, what's happened to Mills? Million pound cricketer, plastered all over their advertising and not a peep about him.

Wells can no longer bowl due to his serious injury

I thought he was injured.

There's nothing on the Sussex website about him being injured - just about him signing a two-year extension, he's also in the squad photo for the game.

Nor is there anything about whether Finch and Van Zyl are injured.

Injured - back.

Abysmal decision putting Hampshire in.

Quite apart from his longstanding back condition, Mills is currently recovering from a hamstring strain. I believe this is a similar injury to the one that restricted his appearances in the IPL. He's a bit of a glass ornament fitness wise and I wouldn't be confident of seeing much of him.

Don't think Robinson is allowed to play in the first team this year (any form) due to contract issues - still being paid by ex club although playing for Sussex 2nds. If Sussex want him in 1st's would cost a fair bit to buy him out. On a trial thing really. Crowd was reasonable but for 'local Derby' not as high as hoped. These 20/20's have Friday night written all over them.

Isn't that Angus Robson rather than Ollie Robinson who played in the first XI regularly last season?
