Why are we ****ed if where relying on marnus? He averaged 50+ last ashes in a low scoring series and is averaging 73 in county this season.jfc if we're relying on Marnus and Head in England we're ****ed

It'll be ok though, because that's basically the situation with eveyone in England's line up too.Because his luck has got to run out sometime, and I still maintain that he's not really that good
If you can't score runs in the sunshine at Hove then you really are out of form. No excuses for Smith in this game.Neser and Labuschagne vs Smith for next 4 days (Glam vs Suss)
Still don't know why he's batting 5 for Sussex, should be at 3 if Pujara needs to be at 4.If you can't score runs in the sunshine at Hove then you really are out of form. No excuses for Smith in this game.
Because Sussex have a set in stone top 3 of Haines, Orr and Alsop and they will continue to be the 3 long after Smith has had his little jaunt with County Cricket.Still don't know why he's batting 5 for Sussex, should be at 3 if Pujara needs to be at 4.
I know you're baiting and all, but ffsThe annoying thing from a Sussex perspective is that McAndrew would be of far more use to this team than Smith.
No I mean it. Sussex have scored 400 odd in their last 4 matches with Smith either not playing or not contributing. Scoring runs has not generally been an issue. What they desperately need is more help for Robinson with the ball, hence why McAndrew is actually more use to this team than Smith is.I know you're baiting and all, but ffs
So they pay a small fortune to have the #3 ranked Test Batsman in the World to bat below Alsop who averages 30.62 in FC cricket lolBecause Sussex have a set in stone top 3 of Haines, Orr and Alsop and they will continue to be the 3 long after Smith has had his little jaunt with County Cricket.
Robinson gets Laubuschagne for 1 LBW.Neser and Labuschagne vs Robinson and Smith for next 4 days (Glam vs Suss)
Harris vs Potts will also be interesting (Glouc vs Durh). While Harris made a 148 his other 6 innings are 135 runs @ 22.50
This is Sussex, there's no 'small fortune' available even for Smith. I suspect it was more a 'mutually acceptable' amount seeing as Smith clearly wanted to come to England early anyway.So they pay a small fortune to have the #3 ranked Test Batsman in the World to bat below Alsop who averages 30.62 in FC cricket lol
We were also crap going into the 86/87 series. One of our own journalists famously said this England team has 3 main issues, 'they can't bat, they can't bowl and they can't field.'The 1986/87 Australian side was one of the worst ever put on the park. A lot of the blokes in it may have become good or great players later, but at that time they were bloody hopeless. 2010/11 Aus under performed and England that summer down here were exceptionally good.
I'm well aware of what has transpired across the various series over the years, which is why whenever an England supporter such as yourself trots out the old "when was the last time you won in England?" I remind them it was the 4th test in 2019, whereas the last time England won here was the fifth test in 2011.
I haven't been as bullish about an away Ashes series as this one in ages. There's a yawning chasm between the quality of these two sides, not just a gap. Aus brings an attack over this time which is fresh, knows the conditions and is brimming with quality that's suited to the conditions led byt he best bowler in the world. In Smith and Labushagne it has the two best batsmen on either side, Khawaja is the better of the four openers on offer, Head cancels Brook out, Green will function as a fifth bowler which England lacks, and Lyon >>> Leach.
It's done. Honestly, spare yourselves the angst and have a breather til August when the Premier League kicks off again.
Should be banned for dissent ?Well Neser scored 1 more than Labuschagne, but he's perished in a near identical fashion with Robinson not bothering to look round to the umpire before celebrating.
Well even Haines took 2-22. Haha, you said it would be easy to bat at Hove and you were surprised Sussex decided to bowl first (then Glamorgan 8-83 at lunch)Robinson has now removed all the 'Aussies' as Van der Gugten edges to slip. 4-22 off 10 overs
It's a bright sunny day, normally perfect for batting at Hove, and yet the ball is swinging. Two wickets were bowled not playing a shot, everything else has either been lbw or caught behind. Glamorgan have not batted well, it's probably more a 100-3 than an 80-8 kind of morning. But then Robinson just seems a bit too good for most Div 2 batsmen.Well even Haines took 2-22. Haha, you said it would be easy to bat at Hove and you were surprised Sussex decided to bowl first (then Glamorgan 8-83 at lunch)
