Okay I am switching off for a bit to see if Wells and Van Z can build without my influence. Not a good start after winning the toss.

Wells is a class act. He's come back from injury and really kicked on. I'd like to see him get a chance with the England Lions to show what he can do.

Just looked and he's well on the way to 1000 runs this season and averaging 93.5, still only 26 years old.

Great chance in the morning for Archer and Jordan to try and get us 48 runs in 14 overs (about 3.5 an over) for maximum points.

Brilliant fight back from Sussex, like the look of our bowling attack as well. Bring on day 2.

Oh well its down to Briggs and Archer to get 38 in six overs, to get maximum bonus points. And not lose another wicket to deny them the last bonus point.

Archer was clean bowled but no ball.
