Sussex v Surrey day 3

[Pevenseagull]

Naved-Ul-Husan watch (Rana to his mates)

The EXCELLENT news is Rana's NOT going on the Asian all stars tour now

in light of Lewry's side strain this is a MAJOR result

I caught the last couple of hours yesterday - Rana looks a pretty accomplished batsman

we bat very deep these days

shame we didn't get a wicket or two but it's set up nicely if the weather holds

n.b. a couple of Carlsberg tents do not count as a 'real ale' festival

Could be bowler friendly out there today if the weather holds up.

We need to get a few early wickets to put the pressure on them.

Butcher was at the ground yesterday having a net, ony just realised he's not in the team (Surrey, not England)
