SUSSEX V HAMPSHIRE - 16/06/05 |
|
Sussex are going strong this season, and tonight would be the biggest indication of the success they could have this season. Shane Warne and Hampshire arrive at the County Ground in the C&G Trophy, and victory for Sussex would send them to the final at Lords, their first domestic cup final appearance since 1993. A large contingent were ready and waiting to cheer them on from the Cromwell Road End, but could Sussex deliver against one of the best one day sides in the country |
 |
 |
| Things could get sticky at the toss, as Shane Warne won it and elected to bat | The two teams prepare for one of the biggest games of the season |
 |
 |
| The RAF Falcons were present again, putting on another fine display of parachuting | This chap would be hoping for a save landing |

 |
 |
| Oli sporting traditional Sussex hat | McCarthy looks forward to a fine game in prospect |

 |
 |
| Sussex come onto the pitch for the big game | The Hampshire openers make their way to the middle |
 |
 |
| They are ticking along nicely, unfortunately for Sussex | This seagull was incredibly big |
 |
 |
| These signs were supplied by Oliver and were used to great effect throughout the game | Mushtaq Ahmed takes his position to field |
 |
 |
| Despite its size, Kieran failed to spot this worm, as Chapman pointed it out he announced "that's a piece of grass Chapman" | Shane Warne comes out to bat |
 |
 |
| He prepares himself | Sussex are celebrating |
 |
 |
| He is out | Sussex wrap up the Hampshire innings, but the visitors have still managed to set a decent score |
 |
 |
| Here they are - North Stand Chats Edward Scissorhands and John Boy are happy to be with Ape | While McCarthy enjoys this attempted raping |
 |
 |
| McCarthy 'enjoys' these curry chips | Unfortunately, one of the chips was so hard it managed to snap the fork |
