Sharks welcome Glamorgan to Hove for next Royal London One-Day Cup clash
The Sharks were narrowly defeated by Somerset on Sunday under the Duckworth/Lewis Method as the rain played havoc with the second half of the match.
After Somerset had made 303 for 5 from 49 overs, Sussex were originally set 198 to win from 25 overs and latterly 165 from 20 overs following another rain break, but despite a fantastic 40 from only 20 balls from Laurie Evans, the Sharks fell 9 runs short of their target.
