Sussex CCC at Arundel Castle ground
The match begins today (Wednesday June 12) at 11am at the picturesque ground and Sussex will be looking to extend their lead at the summit of the Division One table as they are currently five points clear at the top.
They protected their unbeaten start to the season in dramatic fashion at Lord’s, batting out the final day against Middlesex to deny the hosts victory. Luke Wright’s first-class best of 187 ensured that Sussex even set their opponents a Fourth Day target of 178 but the draw was confirmed at 50 for 3.
