Arrange these words: Sussex, hook, the, off and wriggled.
Durham must be kicking themselves now as Luke Wells looks set for his fifth championship century against them and his third in Chester-le-Street.
But he should have been gone long ago, as should Sussex. They were in disarray when Ben Raine should have run him out for eight, but he missed the target from 10 yards with the batsman marooned.
He was then dropped in the slips, while still on eight. But at tea, he has dragged his side from the abyss and now sits on 92 runs.
There’s every reason to think he will reach three figures again because he’s looked in little trouble in the afternoon session and although last man Mir Hamza only has seven he has looked quite calm in the middle too.
Durham had Derbyshire at 68-5 on day one in Derby last Friday and lost the match. Today Sussex were 71-7 and then 159-9.
