Will we try to achieve a target to set them tonight and declare overnight or bat 1 hour in the morning?

WOW! Maybe Luke Wells had the Red Bulls at lunch as well as Phil Salt.
Might as well send in Archer next to smash the ball about.

I saw him score 180 between tea and close last year. Safe to say he has it in him....

The way these two are going, we’ll probably get an hour at them tonight.

150 (155) with Salts sixth six I believe (plus 51 lead)
Probably an agreed declaration target.
Possibly. It isn't declaration bowling though - the only four bowlers they've used, were the four main bowlers in the Sussex first innings.

Well done Phil - think that's his 2nd 100 - only 21 and doesn't play much CC cricket

Time for some Tea - Sussex lead Derbyshire by 267 runs with 9 wickets remaining
Another 70 runs and put them in (my opinion)

I would declare and leave them 30 mins to bat tonight. 2 wickets could be invaluable more so than 20 extra runs.

Cricket captains are more cautious than us. About 350 runs were scored yesterday, and more on the first day. Thats what they will be guided with. However we have a platform to get close to that and I agree a wicket or 2 tonight could be match winning.
