hasn't conceded a run yet

Sussex definitely seem to have our script. Let's hope they follow it until the end of the match.

[Durhamfootman]

Sussex may very well have the best 6,7,8 in county cricket on current form

6 overs in and we've only conceded one scoring shot

[captaincolly]

Scoring at about 1 an over.

Handy to get the third wicket before the close. Ollie Robinson in as night watchman-was he the one who scored a hundred against us ?

He was indeed. He's a useful cricketer. Sussex bat down to eleven- still a lot of work to do.

Yep. Getting to the stage overs wise where taking wickets becomes harder.

[Durhamfootman]

got to get a couple early in the morning

[captaincolly]

Seems as if the Wells dismissal was a terrible umpiring decision - given out caught in the slips after an appeal that didn't involve the bowler!

Not quite going according to plan! The new ball can't come soon enough.

[captaincolly]

2 wickets in two balls either side of lunch for Raine is exactly what was required. 141/5.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Another win?

Another win?

Should be but with their batting depth it might get tricky if we don't make full use of the new ball. Our bowlers struggle when it stops nipping around.
