Henry has been, statistically, our worst bowler. Probably the only innings this season we can say that.
Rusty I imagine.
I can't see how we can win without enforcing the follow on. I suppose we could thrash a quick 150-200 then put them back in again, but it would be a tricky declaration

Surely Bilbo must invite Derby to bat again.
Sussex have just lost to Middlesex by 55 runs (hooray!) but a draw doesn't really help us given our lack of batting points this season; we need to push for the win.
Put Derby back in and if we manage to bowl them out in time go into T20 mode to try and knock off the runs in double-quick time.
How many games left? We get points for a draw don't we? (I'm living abroad so not up to date with rule changes): The draw would narrow the gap (a bit) as Sussex have lost, so not a bad week without being a very good one. Maybe if Warwickshire beat Sussex and we pick up a win we can claw our way into 2nd place.

Win 16 Draw 8
Still 4 games left, so a lot of points to play for

Not quite: a draw is worth 5 points, a tie is worth 8 points.

The next wicket will give us maximum bonus points.Edit: Ignore the last sentence, we've already bowled more than 110 overs!
Derby now 374-9, 187 runs behind Kent, still needing another 38 runs to avoid the follow-on.
Edit: Sorry Henry, not your wicket! Your bowling, your run out, but you don't get the credit for it in the bowling stats!
