Not expecting a declaration before 3pm tomorrow with the overs left in the game. With relegation at play in division one, the points weighting for a draw is just too generous to risk.

A 550 run lead with 130 overs left to bowl is about the equation I expect Sussex will want to manipulate.

Exactly that. It's a road now.

Reckon we’ll try to bat at least until lunch tomorrow. Probably longer.
I know John is a cautious captain and we do love a draw, but we won't be batting into tomorrow.

Work to do for Sussex. Scoring slowly (to not risk losing wickets) and then losing wickets isn’t ideal!

All three results possible.
It’s promising for us that their spinners have taken wickets though.

We have a 529 one right now with about 133 overs left in the game - so getting close

May not need to think about a declaration now. 529 ahead with three remaining. Be nice for Simps to get another century though. Looks like maybe an hour or so at them tonight.

Pouring with rain for the last two hours here. Seems a bit ridiculous to still be chewing up overs batting.
