Well done to Jamie Atkins for his Michelle.
Also good work from Haines & Orr for negotiating 23 overs without loss.
Close of play: Sussex 38 -0, trail by 207 runs.

Have to admit to watching the Test match today not Sussex but thrilled for Atkins on his 5fer.
Batting out the day a big ask tomorrow but all is not lost…..yet.

Poor ol' van Zyl. Out for a golden. His recent form has fallen off Table Mountain. Can Sussex hold out to the close of play and take a draw?
I give 'em 50/50 at best.

Once again our 2 overseas ‘stars’ (more like black holes) are back in the shed. Completely outshone by Ali Orr, on debut, who stuck around for over 4 hours!
35 overs to negotiate after tea to take the draw and 12 points.

Agree, it’s not looking good for our ‘stars’ at the moment. With the exception of Brown, we’d have been knackered without contributions from Orr, Ibrahim, Atkins, Carson & Thomason. Well done them. Frankly, if we can bat out the day we deserve a draw.

Sussex have lost 6-23 since Head chucked his wicket away and he also dropped Malan on 27 who went on to make 199. Meaker is a complete waste of space. Yorkshire to win now.
Our three weakest players in this match have been Head, Meaker and Van Zyl.
