Woakes tidies up the tail
Sussex 254 all out.
Woakes came back on to take out the tail with the new ball, trapping Joyce (107, 224 balls, 12 fours) - a huge wicket as the number three could have shepherded the tail to more useful runs in what could be a low-scoring contest - and then pinned Rayner in front to curtail a lively counter-attack at 22.
Botha a Bears-best 31-10-63-4.
Six leg byes.

Dang those leg-byes. Let's hope the extra "batting point" - what a misnomer - they gave Sussex doesn't prove vital at the end of the season.
Take their pads away, I say.
He who is tired of leg-byes is tired of life.
