Sussex have now won two games by 10 wickets and the other two by more than 200 runs.

Their team shows that there is a gulf between the top two divisions.

Very much back to our old ways of last year, let's hope it was a blip.

 

[CM]

I have a bit of sympathy for the side. It was a bad toss to lose with it nipping around on the first morning and we also lost Hoggy to a stomach bug. If we'd won the toss and Hoggy had the new ball, it would have been a different game.

Obviously there was a lot of bad things
- Getting skittled out for 114
- Letting that 9th wicket partnership get so far out of hand
- The top 5 all getting starts in the third innings but only one score of 90 to show for it.
- Cobb becoming a complete passenger in the side

Sussex are the best side in the division but disappointed we didn't give them a better contest. Ah well, roll on 6 straight days of cricket starting on Sunday.
