Unless they prepare slow, low surfaces at Hove, I can see Sussex struggling to get out of the South group if they have to put out this batting line-up too many times. Zaidi at number 5?

We'll probably lose Jordan for a bit as well. Still they are doing a good job at the moment (the bowlers I mean). Top of the group.
