What a journey Jordan has been on in the last 2 years dumped by the man utd of cricket picked up by tiny Sussex and within 6 months pulls on a England shirt becomes THE best slip fielder in the world and a very good at the death bowler , and now later this weekend will probably start in the IPL final , there's a good film in there somewhere .

'No play before lunch - rain' is what you will see.

Who do we think drop out when we have both Wright and Jordan back - who should be a great advantage at this level

I would guess

Finch and Whittingham which is a shame for home grown talent

However would make a strong looking side

Derby didn't get into hotel until 3am last night after losing on the last ball to Northants. Who does that scheduling

Not sure we will see much of Jordan at all this summer , can't really comment on who should drop out for Wright as I've no seen Whittingham play at all .

Thunder here at Hove. Not raining but open ground declared so the non-members can dodge the lightning!

Thats good lightning strikes.com showing one just hitting north of the ground above Hove Rec - so all huddle around the big TV and the Test Match.

Machan puts down a simple catch - apparently Joyce dropped one earlier

Still we are bowling well - especially Shazad.

89 for 6.

Really short boundary on the scoreboard side. Whittingham smashed for a six - ball stuck up on someone's balcony. Much standing around....

97 for 7

Whittingham gets a catch right in front of the scoreboard - Derby going for that short boundary

Excellent last effort to get down 9 wickets and full bonus points in just 40 overs

Let's hope our batsman can be more patient and level headed. In the last over Wells got a ball to turn..

Great to see Shazhad bowling with real menace and Whittingham showing real promise

Weather looks very good for today - at long last!
