Were still loose.

I believe this has to be stated at the close of play no matter what the score...

You just know that after all this talk of records, we're going to lose four wickets for a couple of runs this morning

Yes - brilliant achievement by him and we can all be very proud of our Sussex lad. Hopefully he will be part of the winning team.

Reading about the Sussex record this morning. Apparently, Billy Newham was only a part-time player by then - he was 41 - and was Sussex secretary. Ranji insisted that he played and the pair of them put on that total. It stood as a world record for more than 50 years.

Imagine cajoling a bit-time player to turn out: it would be a bit like getting Tony Cottey to put his pads on again

400 from 107 overs




... I assume they haven't changed the points again?

No changes. Standard maximum batting points for Sussex.

I bet when Northants had us at 68-6 they didn't think for a second that they'd end up with just the two bonus points (while we got the full 5)

Anyone know why Northants have got 12 players (according to the BBC)? I see that 11 have already been involved in the game - the only one who hasn't been mentioned is the captain, Wakely. Anyone know why?

Rumours in the ground that “things went on yesterday”

Knocked himself out on a low beam at home. That's the story, anyway.

I see his stand-in is doing pretty well

Northants 164-3, 587 runs scored so far, doesn't sound like a result pitch does it?
