Ye unless Papa Lazarou can pull some miraculous weather forecast out the bag.

Throw a couple of fringe players in for some 1st team experience today (Haines and Sakande).

According to Wiki, its only ever held 54 competitive games, I thought it would have been more, however, I have seen a lot of touring sides there over the years so I imagine those friendly's blur into the proper games.

I have seen us win and lose a few there over the years, but no idea of what the percentages are. Just a lovely day out when the weathers good.

Off to Wisbech today, Peterborough and Wellingborough tomorrow and Cheshire/Shropshire on Thursday, very poor scheduling by my Clients!

I suppose it might go the four days...

I thought that was a joke, silly me. Very strange indeed.

Almost going back to the sticky wicket days and the reverse batting line up

He's been opening for the Seconds.

It's not new for Sussex. A few years back, Jimmy Anyon played as opener when we had some injury problems and I remember Gunner Gould opening occasionally too
