Somehow scraped a draw yesterday but Northants will surely show us up for the MINNOWS that we are in the 40 over game.

The game had looked like it would be rained off earlier this week but weather now looks OK, worse luck. :nono:


Mrs Jakarta's favourite millionaire's son will be playing so I suppose will be dragged to Arundel to watch the carnage.

Might be a rain affected match, we need to bat first and gnasher and Wells need to put on about 50 in 5 overs to get ahead on D/L and then pray.

These cricket threads are ball crushingly embarrassing. I repeatedly make the mistake of checking them for news only to back out quickly to avoid the "hilarious" pint of your finest ale landlord most tedious long running non joke ever.

Your automated Jibrovian translator feature seems to have packed up.

Fear not stout yeoman. There are radical but reliable solutions available to save you from further humiliation...

ps
unfortunately it looks like they'll get a game in today - so our preferred method of point scoring in YB40 won't be an option...

Original Post was all true

1. We DID just scrape a draw against Slurrey
2. Northants ARE above us in the Pro40 Table
3. The weather forecast WAS crap but IS now OK-ish for some play
4. Mrs Jakarta DOES fancy Rory Hamilton Brown

What is his problem.... ???

If it's sunny in England, why are England playing New Zealand in Wales?

'England and Wales' are playing 'New Zealand' in Wales. But yes, cricket in Wales is silly as it always rains!

Sussex Team: CD Nash, LJ Wright, LWP Wells, RJ Hamilton-Brown, EC Joyce*, MH Yardy, BC Brown†, JE Anyon, WAT Beer, LJ Hatchett, CJ Liddle

Prior not bothering with Pro40 and Monty resting after sending down all those overs vs Surrey?

Sussex win toss and field, Anyon already being his economical self....
