CCD1 – Sussex – Chelmsford
Southee is back and comes in, as does Keogh for Dixon and Matthie for Cook, who has been selected for England and Copperfield looked average so Cowe comes in as an opener. Sussex won the toss and batted first and Topley ripped through them very well, taking 5.
When we batted, the contributions were not big, with only Cowe making an impact scoring a career best 95. Still, we grabbed a large lead. In their second innings, Sussex did ok but we were still favourites but we capitulated to lose by 11 runs.
Batting Award: Dan Cowe- always seems to punch above his weight as an opener.
Bowling Award: Reece Topley – unlucky to be on the losing side with his performance.
Championship State: 4th and our title hopes seem to be slipping away. Next up a crucial match against Warwickshire in Birmingham.
