We're playing tonight. Can understand the lack of interest but Finch, Hatchett and Beer are all in, as well as most the usuals. Think we're a batter light again with Wright and Nash reserve bowlers but I don't pick the side. |

Wright needs to get a big score,otherwise Kent will l be disappointed if they dont win this at a stroll. Their supporters don't like us v much. They are being v rude about Sussex having lost the plot and being a bunch of fixers. If this is the sort of reaction they're getting on Friday nights around the country, it may explain the poor performances.

Finch needs to get out. Can't hit the ball off the square. He's been in almost half the innings for 19. Suicide. Run him out, Luke, for goodness sake!

Same old Sussex. Only one batsman turned up.
Kent to win at a canter. Wicket at Canterbury always slicks up under the lights so ball comes on better.

Who decided Anyon is suddenly a t20 bowler? Hardly ever played this format and first over showed why

Well bowled Hatchett. Good change of pace. Looks a better left arm option than Liddle. Great catch by RHB from what looked like another Anyon four ball!

Midsummer eve I suppose is the one Friday night when the pitch wasn't going to slick.up under the lights with the dew. Kent batsmen cannot read the pace of the ball at all. Piolet bowling at Beer's pace and bamboozling the batsmen. Well bowled Sussex. The season restarts here?

Well the BBC suddenly started working again and what a pleasant surprise - a win at last. So much for your 'better under lights' talk BM, it's our day today. Piolet, Hatchett and Beer, hats off boys. And Wright of course who has delivered in this form, at last, while all else failed. Good little knock from Finch, albeit a touch slow, but in the context of the game a match winning partnership.
Crack on with the youngsters, they've helped stop the rot.

Good effort by the bowlers tonight especially Piolet, Hatchett and Beer. Well batted Wright.

I think the word is hubris after all the crowing from Kent fans about Sussex imploding. No win in five and one win in seven for Kent. They seem to be imploding..Not sure if I'm going to get out of here alive!

I return to discover a much needed win. Well done Sussex, well done
Wright. Once more we rely on one batsman to get us through. And
well done to Piolet, the pick of the bowlers.
Two wins in a row now and we're back in the fray.

They seem to be imploding..Not sure if I'm going to get out of here alive! I would just like to say BM I was not one of those Kent fans crowing! Always thought that Sussex would hve the edge even bringing in Beer, Piolet & Hatchett. Most of us boys in the Knott/Underwood thought Sussex would get 175. At the end of the innings they seemed 25 short. Missed Keysy being bowled first ball. Billings and SNe played a few lusty blows to get things going, then SNE had his middle stump uprooted and we were than nearly allways playing catch up! A diasppopinting result, but then again I'm not into all this "Tribal" stuff like Football! I don't mind that Sussex won (even though they are our neighbours) Luke Wright's innings was stupendous. I could watch him bat all day! A super player shows no fear and is also very lovely guy. Caught up with Yasir to say hi & he offrered to give Dom some bowling on a 1:1 basis. Lovely to also Sam Relf there with Phil and rest of family. You're a fighter Sam that's for sure! Well Done Sharks! Safe journey to Cambridge and then to Durham! |

Two wins in a row now and we're back in the fray. Two wins in a row now and we 're will back in the fray- we have to win them first before you can start using the present tense, s&f! But having broken the catastrophic losing sequence, we surely have a fair chance of winning the next two, as they are against the group's strugglers, Middx and Glos, followed again by Kent, who are suffering a Sussex-like bout of the mid-season doldrums. Win even two out of those three and we would be on 10 pts with three games remaining, and with luck could have a chance of overtaking Surrey or Glamorgan and fellow outsiders Kent and Somerset for the 4th qualifying spot. But it will still be tough as all six sides above us have at least a game in hand and Hants, Essex and Surrey seem to have the all-important momentum behind them. However much performances improve from here, you'd have to calculate that it's now impossible for Sussex to get in the top two to bag a lucrative home q/f. |
