A cracking end to the first tour game. Sussex declared sportingly in the first innings to spice the game up and bowled well to push India on the back foot. India lost wickets in a clutch and couldn't force the pace as a result. Finally, the declaration came. The bowlers tried to push for a result and pushed Sussex to the precipice but Robin Martin-Jenkins stood between them and victory.
The last over of the day. India need a wicket, Sussex just need to see off these deliveries from Kumble. Cracking finish to the tour game.
