Hampshire v Sussex
A solid, if unspectacular, batting performance saw Hampshire to a total of 153 all out, openers James Hamblin and Derek Kenway putting on 66 in rapid time, and the rest of the order chipped in with the next 5 batsmen getting into double figures, but only John Crawley getting past 12!
Mark Davis twirled away at the end of the innings picking up the fine figures of 3-13 from 3 overs as the tail gave him the charge and both Nick Pothas and Alan Mullally were stumped.
The veteran Pakistani left armer Wasim Akram then showed that there's no substitute for quality accurate bowling, bowling Matt Prior and then trapping Murray Goodwin first ball LBW. When Dimitri Mascarenhas followed up by removing Chris Adams for 5, it was 27-3, and the writing was on the wall. Wicket-keeper Tim Ambrose tried to revive the innings, hammering an unbeaten 54 from 39 balls, but Mullally showed there wasn't just one left armer on show with talent, bowling his 4 overs for only 19 runs, and Sussex closed 5 runs short on 148-7
