It's hard to find much to complain about from that performance. What we would all give for a few more good results like that.

I know some of us on here get frustrated with Delray … but when he has days like this, I can forgive quite a lot of brain fades. A really good match today.

A really enjoyable day.

What about Ward bowling 2 overs when we have six already bowlers. I didn't see it, was he still bowling the utter filth I saw him bowling in a T20 or is he the new Mushy? Good win that. We should do pretty well in this comp cos we seem to be the least affected by Hundred call ups. Which is indicative of a wider issue but no need to keep going there, for now. King Rawlins. Probably get a Hundred gig now. Pretty surprised someone hasn't punted on him & Orr actually. And Ibrahim for that matter.

And if you don't know what an 'already bowler' is it's a bowler who's ready to rock.

I had the pleasure of watching at Hove today. Well done Sussex. A good team performance. Sussex deserved to win. Top performance from Rawlins and Ibrahim. Still some question marks; but let's enjoy the win. Same team for Leicestershire on Sunday? Who knows.

A very impressive 50 from Ibrahim. What a player he could be for the next 15 years! He's a class act, i think more exposure to the top of the order in the CC will make him a far better. So what if he fails a few times it's all about learning and developing. Have to disagree with putting him up the order. Don't rush into it and spoil him. He's still very young and doesnt need to fail a few times. He will be a quality all rounder; on that we can agree.

You need to fail to learn, fear of failure makes you weaker. He'll not get the huge scores batting 7 and 8. Why wouldn't you want someone with his ability scoring more

Squad announced for tomorrow’s game v Leicestershire at Hove.
Unchanged apart from Robinson who joins up with the England camp ahead of the first Test v SA next week.
In other words, everyone who’s fit!

Who will replace Robinson? My guess is Crocombe. Will Salisbury be brave and make any other changes? Probably not.

Sussex have won the toss and bowl first.
Orr Clark Alsop+ Pujara* Ward Rawlins Ibrahim Currie Lenham Karvelas Crocombe
So Currie and Crocombe in for Robinson and Hunt.

Joe, in a way we were both right. I consider Clarke, Ward and Lenham quite lucky to retain their places. Interesting decision to bowl first. Let's hope we can get some early wickets.

Super start. 29 for 3. Decision at toss justified.

Now 29/5 as Karvelas takes his 4th.
Double wicket maiden.
