Somehow, Sussex has a 200 run lead after Carter was given a reprieve.

137 all out. Yorkshire need 201 to win. They could do that tonight with over 40 overs left in the day.

It’s the Hope (and Lyth) that kills you….
Sussex in trouble now if these 2 start hitting out. Our only hope is we get to day 4 and it rains all day.

I thought Robinson would take more wickets in this match. Are you guys concerned he might be holding himself back for England?

This is reminiscent of our first game, only this time we’re playing the role of Durham unfortunately

Poor from Sussex to let their number 11 get 45 off 32 balls and then be bowled for such a low score. No amount of sugar coating by Fabrace can change this.

Are the weather gods going to save Sussex today?

Keep going with the rain dance! Unfortunately, the weather may improve come the afternoon. Even so, luck could be on our side.

You deserve this luck after the bad decision not to give Hope out. With technology available these days they should bring DRS into the Championship.

Further inspection at 3:45pm. Sun is out now but ground very wet. Tks for the update Joe. I'll continue with the rain dance. Think Sussex have been at the wrong end of some dreadful umpiring decisions; so would be happy with draw even though we need to sharpen up. Let's see.

Play abandoned and we take a draw and 11 points from the game. Good result methinks.

Congratulations to our rain dancers for earning us a draw. Plenty to mull over from that game. Robinson wasn’t the force we were hoping for but fingers crossed for next time.
