[Taybha]

Finch gone as well

 

[studio150]

33-2 Finch lbw 0

Not a good start in what look like perfect conditions

 

[Postman Pat]

It's a great setting for club cricket and touring sides, but the four day games are invariably snooze fests as the pitches are prepared to ensure there is cricket on all four days,

............unless Sussex bat first.

 

[studio150]

74-3 Wells caught 42

 

[Pevenseagull]

At least now I can make the standard 'need a big innings from Wells' comment.

 

[clarkey]

As is customary, Luke Wright off the mark with a 6.

 

[clarkey]

Can't be that often that a team gets through 6 bowlers before lunch on Day 1?

 

[studio150]

Wright bowled 24. 138-4

 

[studio150]

160-5 will we be bowling before tea

 

[studio150]

165-6 time for the refreshments tent

 

[Papa Lazarou]

160-5 will we be bowling before tea

How to f@ck up on a great batting day. #TheSussexWay

[CHAPPERS]

Time to drop Nash.

 

[Marshy]

Pretty much everyone has got in.......then out...

Either its a wicket you are never truly in on... or we are not concentrating

It's an odd scorecard that's for sure.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Jofra Archer is to cricket what Bobby Zamora was to the Albion in 2000 - a "one man team".

I mean, did you really need to say that when he was trying to dig us out of a hole??

As an aside, wouldn't you just love Ned Eckersley being a signing from the Yorkshire Leagues and turning up in a Flat Hat and smoking a Pipe?
