Sunny in Worthing, I'd assume play will start normal time at Arundel. I'm predicting an overnight declaration in order to get a result.


Edit: just checked, declaration overnight looks good but will probably be rain interrupted at some point.

Lets get some wickets.

early breakthrough for Robbo
but runs flowing now for Gloucestershire :
seems to be very streaky though : "through the slips, leading edge etc etc"
three slips still

Hmmm... odds against a result but you never know. Presumably expectations about spin haven't been helped by the weather and lack of play.

17 wickets in a day, with 200 runs to play with. Must be 500 to 1 Beefy Botham odds.

309 - for 5 wickets (98.0 overs) Gloucestershire trail Sussex by 42 runs with 5 wickets remaining

 

[Luke93]

6th wicket before Tea and the 110th over. Bore draw coming up.

Match Drawn - weather making life difficult at the moment - however as the table shows, you've got to be in it to win it. Tough game away at Worcestershire next week, followed by Durham.

Ahhh but Sussex will have their added ingredient, THE SUPPORTERS COACH to spur them on at this one - if they can tear themselves away from all that extra-curricular overnight bonking with each other as they revel in the freedom from domestic constraints offered by an "away game"
