Wouldn't that be a decision for the batsman, or has that changed now?

Sadly (Stupidly?) as far as I am aware it is now the Umpires call......
and now with no light meters purely the subjective opinion of the umpire as to whether it has improved or not!

Why have they gone for lunch?
We've only been playing for an hour. I can understand the set times for lunch for England matches for the caterers and hospitality but at a county match it can't really be that hard to play till 1:30.

Result not yet possible, so times cannot be altered

Yes there is "You are a total Fuckwit"
Ok, he has had a shit season, but he will be the 1st to tell you that.
Goodwin is an absolute legend for Sussex.
How many trophies would be have won without him these last 12 years.
He has played one season too many, but he will always be a God in my eyes

Warks look like they might lose. Requiring 367 to win, are 38/3 at lunch.

Legend or not, this season has been one too many for Goodwin.
It does not help that our inability to switch from one day mode to proper cricket mode when it comes to battign has been an issue.
I still maintain that Sussex need a specialist batting coach.

Only lasted a few minutes, do not know why they are not back out.

Surely the first point and last point could be combined to produce a satisfactory outcome for everyone. Offer him the batting coach position at the end of the season.
Somerset 247 & 195
Sussex 279 & 98/5 (29.0 ov)
Sussex require another 66 runs with 5 wickets remaining

You'd kind of hope if he was any good as a coach he'd be offering help now?
