Sussex v Derbyshire day 2

Sussex 402 (Clark 96, Haines 86, Hudson-Prentice 63*, Carter 56, Scrimshaw 5-49)

Derbyshire 212-3 (Guest 80*, Madsen 51, du Plooy 32*)

Derbyshire trail by 190 runs

A better day for Derbyshire today, with George Scrimshaw blowing away the Sussex tail to take a maiden five-wicket haul, then the Derbyshire batters doing a good job to work a promising position by the close.

After Harry Came and Luis Reece fell, Brooke Guest, partnered in turn by Wayne Madsen and Leus du Plooy took Derbyhire to 212-3 in reply to Sussex' 402 all out.

It sets the game up nicely and there could be a good finish if the weather allows it.

Certainly better prospects than looked likely at lunch yesterday...

    We need to get within 30 runs of their score. Sadly, we have a long tail. If we did get in front, I'd fancy Scrimshaw to have a good go at them again. Kris
