Good solid start this by Eagles.

Sussex doesnt look that threatening at all. Who played the handy role for them in the domestic t20???

Nash with the bat. And the bowlers memorably (and accurately) described by Scaly as the "anti-cricket" attack - ie purveyors of slow-medium non-spinning darts such as Yardy and Hamilton-Brown.

Here comes the choke. It's almost scripted.

Edit: Rilee gone.

Sussex deserve this!

 

[kingkallis]

5 to win from 2

WOW - what a game! Can McLaren do it for Eagles? Can Arafat save the game for Sussex?

 

[kingkallis]

Man what a game!

TIE!

 

[silentstriker]

Nooooooo! Tie!

 

[Sanz]

Looking fwd to the bowlout .

 

[popepouri]

Oh ****!

 

[GGG]

what a game

 

[kingkallis]

Looking fwd to the bowlout .

It's an Eliminator to decide who goes through, what a thriller. Each team nominates three batsmen and one bowler, if they lose two wickets the innings (of six balls) is considered over. If it's another tie, the team with most number of sixes in the Eliminator wins.

 

[kingkallis]

Sussex should win this easily now...

They have better playes for such challanges but 6 balls!

 

[Jarquis]

Used to be called the Super Over didn't it? Stanford Super Over in the Stanford T20? Rings a bell.

 

[kingkallis]

Great bowling this...2 dots

 

[kingkallis]

10 to win...

 

[GGG]

why they not running everything, i mean another batter is padded up ...

 

[silentstriker]

10 runs to win. 9 runs are not great but they are defendable.
