Sussex CCC v Kent CCC (Official Thread)

[CHAPPERS]

Overcast with a slight breeze in BN2.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

sun is out in Hove though but expecting Kent to post over 200 runs today for their remaing wickets then skittle Sussex out needing 201 from 3 sessions, Robinson out !!

agree that is the most likely scenario - expect Kent to achieve their easy victory sometime on Saturday afternoon...

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Overcast out west in RH12 but bright. Looks OK at the moment but some grey stuff over towards Godalming/Haslemere.
Looking forward to Hoppo's 70+ by stumps tonight.

Could be tough for Sussex this morning as Kent really do bat right down the order (Jones and Mahmood), Yasirs in last and I am sure he would come in at 6 or 7 for us sometimes.

With a weakend bowling attack Sussex need to stay focused and let Mushy bowl non stop from one end.

Weather is bright and breezy in central Brighton. Come on Sussex

Bit of cloud cover would help

Leeseys mike is on and were are ready to go.

"plesae remain seated at the bowlers end and don,t smoke" over the tannoy, eight minutes before the champions come out.

I have to go to Bognor this afternoon was hoping to get out there this afternoon.

Lets get that last avalible bonus point today.

Kent need 89 to avoid the follow on which must be their target in this session.

Mushy to open bowling, go Mushy

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Mushy STRIKES !!!!

 

[Uncle Buck]

Tredwell gone.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Start delayed at Old Trafford - the usual excuse!

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

what the follow on figure ??

 

[Everest]

154 to avoid it

Mahmood out. MUSHY

103-8

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

one more for the mushometer then

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Wonder is Mushy can get to 1500 first class wickets this season. He would need 103 more.

 

[Skint Gull]

I find it incredible that a team that is 103-8 has Yasir coming in at 11! He must be the best number 11 in the history of first class cricket with a first class average of 27!

They moved Tredwell to open and put a nightwatchman in last night who promptly got out. I think he's normally in around 9.

Can I get any opinions on this?

It's the way the game is going so I would have to say it's a good idea as long as it doesn't get out of hand.

Team would look like this...

Carberry
Wright
Prior
Pieterson
Mascernhas
Martin Jenkins
Yardy
Arafat
Mushy
Kirtley
Joseph
