That’s an annoying result, we threw that one away in our second innings, FFS Bears!

Piss poor.

3rd session yesterday was the problem, we let them build 2 big partnerships and didn't really look like we had any ideas on how to take the wickets. 328 should have been enough to defend so I don't blame the batting. Very frustrating result when we look very close to being a good team this season.

I blame the batting, three of the top four failed again in both innings, this is a recurring problem from last season, when we lose a wicket we immediately lose two or three more. It’s so frustrating!

I recall a conversation I was lucky to have with the then Sussex chairman a couple of years ago. He told me that the stats indicated that batting last at Hove is a good idea as the pitch has a record of flattening out towards the end of the game.

We won the toss and elected to bat in slightly tricky conditions.
