Poor start but a good recovery second innings. Nice to see Hope and Hill building a big partnership but it’s going to be hard to force a win tomorrow on this wicket
Yorkshire will probably try and play T10 style for an hour to get a quick hundred and have a bowl for 30-45 minutes before lunch. Anti Bazball himself Mr Pujara at it again for Sussex with 115 off 163 in the season opener.
Shouldn't be losing to teams like Leicestershire. Not when you get over 500 batting first at home. They declared too soon.
Leicestershire end a 113 year winless streak at Headingley. Now would be a good time to play Coventry away.
Had to go for the win, always tricky to decide when to declare because if you do it too late they bat out for the draw.
Can’t get that declaration right can we. With Patterson as captain we were too defensive. Now with Lyth in charge it’s too tempting for the other side? Deary me though. That’s an awful start to the season
Not forgetting that Leicestershire couldn't win a single bloody game in the county championship last season. Deary me.
I said in the thread yesterday that I thought they would bowl for 30-45 minutes before lunch, so that would be declaring around 12:15. I'm not sure on the exact time but they definitely declared before midday.
