scoring seems to be steady around the grounds. low SR's but no clatter of wickets anywhere.

amazing what a spell of decent weather can do

50 for Moeen.

Remind me why he's here and not in the Caribbean.

To prove his fitness, I seem to remember he's only playing as a batsman today. England need a spinner so if he can't bowl he wouldn't get in to the Test side anyway.

[Arthur Crabtree]

He's out to Bresnan. Much needed wicket.

Brendan Taylor makes a ton on debut.

Brendan Taylor makes a ton on debut.

Just beaten to the first CC ton of the season by Johann Myburgh.

Think Taylor was a very shrewd signing.

[andy]

great signing, and good to see him start with a ton

Hell of a come back for Sussex in Southampton.....

Odd day, really. Steady scoring and not too many wickets, then suddenly side skittled out. Goodness only knows what the players had for tea.

Unless, of course, the weather changed. It did up here. went from cloudy and very wet, to bright and sunny around the tea interval

Someone at Taunton said there was some cloud cover and a bit of drizzle during the afternoon session.
