[Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2024 edition

[hans kraay fan club]

I have to say - from the perspective of somebody who has been watching at work all day, and who finishes work at 5.30pm - that is a SUBLIMEY well judged chase

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

Superb

 

[Jeremiah]

Commentator a bit confused if he thinks the winning run was a four , it hit the slip in the face and was picked up by leg slip after a single was taken

 

[CHAPPERS]

Lovely stuff. Looks a team with something about it does this. Lamb seems like a very good signing

 

[Eeyore]

When was the last time Sussex won a championship game?

Both Lamb and Simpson look like superb bits of recruitment.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Got to say saw Sussex on Friday and Lamb looked very useful and did wonder why he didn't get a down the slope bowl early change ?

 

[Soton Seagull]

Nice to get a win after having partial chances in the first 2 games.

Early days but team seem to have a bit about them and some spirit at last.

 

[Seecider]

10 players already with a championship 50.

When was the last time Sussex won a championship game?

Not as long ago as Gloucestershire whose last county championship win was in 2022!

I think I'm safe to post on a day when Sussex aren't playing without us immediately losing a wicket.

Not Sussex related, but the first day of county cricket I've made it to this season.

Browne facing Carse, the ball was stopped at short mid-off.

Slightly irritating that the Riverside isn't open on the other side anymore, although my recollection is that the car park over there wasn't much better to look at than a stand missing all its seats anyway.

Splendid stuff. I've only been to the Riverside once- May 1995. I was a nuts traveler in those days , driving there and back the same day from Brighton and up for my village match the following day.

I saw Sussex up here for a Pro40 game in 2006, a few days after the C&G final. Montgomerie hit a 50 as we won comfortably.

Also saw Pietersen switch hit Scott Styris for 6 in an ODI in 2008, which blew everybody's minds because you couldn't do that to a seamer in those days.
