[Cricket] Sussex CCC - 2025 Division One Edition

[Simster]

This is my fault. Half an hour ago, I messaged my mate - a Southampton and Hants fan - to say I appreciate he didn't want to talk football, so how about we talk cricket instead.

Expect us to be bundled out for about 83.

 

[Titanic]

50 partnership for Coles 18* and Alsop 25*

Sussex 63-2

 

[Titanic]

Crikey - that looked close.

 

[Gwylan]

Alsop gone - plenty of life in this pitch

Can't see Clark lasting long on this

 

[Titanic]

Alsop gone - plenty of life in this pitch

Can't see Clark lasting long on this

Bit of extra bounce off of just short of a length.... tough going out there.

And Clark gone as predicted

78-4

 

[Greenbag50]

Another Clark failure, must be 6 innings on the bounce at the least

 

[Titanic]

Another Clark failure, must be 6 innings on the bounce at the least

He got runs against Somerset and Warwickshire... but nothing in the last 7 innings.

And Coles out as I type....

83-5

 

[Pevenseagull]

Oh well

Ho hum

 

[Jeremiah]

Alsop gone - plenty of life in this pitch

15 wickets plus on first day - substandard pitch and points deduction for Hants ??

 

[Gwylan]

Another Clark failure, must be 6 innings on the bounce at the least

He got a 140 on the road at Edgbaston - take that away and his average this season is 13

 

[Terry Connor]

15 wickets plus on first day - substandard pitch and points deduction for Hants ??

The pitch is a disgrace. Looks like a day 6 pitch on day 1, puffs of dust, variable bounce and turn. Hants have looked at the number of left handers in the Sussex team and picked a used wicket so Dawson in particular can use the very worn areas outside the off stump. Throw the book at them.

 

[Titanic]

Sussex 100-5, Skipper 11* FHP 6*

 

[Titanic]

Close of Play, Day One

Hampshire 154 all out

Sussex 110-5, Simpson 15* FHP 8*

Any sort of lead would be gold dust.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Great to see Crocombe doing so well, just shows that patience pays off when it comes to young players.

If only it were that simple !
Certainly it’s the case with crocombe though.
And in stokesland for fast bowlers there’s a fine line between the fringes of the Sussex team and lining up for England.
Not impossible he could be fast tracked if he keeps this up

 

[A1X]

Bowling today vs batting today

 

[albionalex]

if we can get a lead of 50, that would be huge.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Batting last on this could be an experience. How the hell is a professional club producing a strip like this in May!!

 

[Eeyore]

if we can get a lead of 50, that would be huge.

In the context of this game, perhaps. They haven't been shy of producing flat tops at Southampton in recent times.

 

[Titanic]

Good first half hour for The Skipper 31* and FHP 19*... Sussex 139-5, trail by 15

Any sort of lead would be gold dust.

(and we have the bonus this morning of no commentary on the Youtube feed )
