Add that to my growing list of pet hates against them.

Shahzad unlucky again, just hope these conditions don't suddenly change when the Aus A bowlers come onto bowl as seems to be the case at times.

Smith is Cameron White c. 2008 all over again. Yes, he's a blond leggie. No, that doesn't mean he bats at #8.

Jesus.

That's a helluva grab from Monty. Cowan will be kicking himself. Done the hard work.

Ed Cowan does not realise how unlucky he really is!!

A Monty Panesar one-handed diving catch to his right, you can't make that stuff up!

Is Carl Hopkinson still the fielding coach at Sussex ? If so, he needs an improved contract.

That's unbelievable. I've seen Monty drop loopy catches let alone take a screamer with his wrong hand whilst diving.

Beauty from Bresnan. Still hate his action, and his run-up but on a pitch with a bit of grass on it Bresnan does bowl some pearlers. He seams it late, and pretty damn far. Has looked impressive from what I've seen.

Good day for batsmen around the country... a combined 7/119 after 90mins play.
