Michael Chadwick on trial (Page 2 of 3)

Quite agree. But it's an interesting point that, in the end, the answer to that question might be 'n/a'

Thought that was a typo when I read that! Could be inspired. What do those two bowl??

Gatting is an off-spinner and Thornely is a medium pacer.

have we sined him?

Any updates on this chappie, and forgive me as I forget his name, the lad from Guernsey that joined the club in the summer.

Any further news on Chadwick or again, forgive me, the Irish chappie from Guernsey ?

Forgive me if this news has been announced or is on another thread, but are there any Sussex players likely to leave/out of contract at the end of this season?

Thanks Sweaty

I guess the Brown/Hodd situation is tricky to handle because they will both want to play regular first team cricket

Do you think Aga and Liddle will be renewed?  Would potentially free up some money to pay for Amjad plus others...

Unless the player budget is cut because of a reduction in t20 income next season

It is a real possibility that the playing budget could be cut and players like RHB, RMJ and Kirtley may not be replaced. That would be a risky strategy though. We have lost many experienced players over the last 12 months, Lewry, Kirtley, RMJ, Hoppo, Dwayne Smith plus the talented RHB and effectively replaced them with Monty Panesar and James Anyon. Our other two recruits, the youngsters Luke Wells and Matt Machan are nowhere near ready for regular first team action. Some of the younger players who are further down the line have been given extended opportunities in the side and have struggled with consistency in the second division. We would I think find it very difficult to compete in the top division were that the case.

neither ! - the playing budget would reduce if number of 20/20 games reduced - otherwise should remain about the same

we dont have the same issues re ground development as money is donated rather than borrowed
