Ben Sanderson	15.2	4	28	5	1.82	77	0	0
0.5 to TJ Haines, tight line on a full length to the left-hander, Haines pushes forward and first slip scoops a sharp low snick. Sussex lost their first in the first over. 1/1 4.2 to AD Thomason, full once more, theoretically driveable, but a hint of late movement finds the edge instead and the keeper completes Sanderson's second of the morning. 10/2 6.1 to S van Zyl, Sanderson has three in the blink of an eye! Superb delivery, angled across the left-hander, but straightening off the pitch to thump the top of middle. Van Zyl is done all ends up. 19/3 12.1 to TGR Clark, round the wicket, curling into the left-hander, Clark plants a sturdy front foot, but that's slammed him on the pad! Six down!. 21/6 42.2 to JP Sarro, full length, catching practice to third slip as Sarro pokes his bat down the line. Five wickets apiece for the the main men!. 106/10
Tom Taylor	8	0	37	0	4.62	32	0	0
Gareth Berg	13	5	18	5	1.38	68	0	0
11.1 to TM Head, Berg joins the party now, and Head's debut is short and to the point! Pushed across the left-hander, movement and extra bounce to snag the splice, and first slip clings onto a head-high chance. A familiar demise on a bowler's morning!. 21/4 11.4 to BC Brown, Two in the over for Berg, and Sussex are in freefall! Swinging in from outside off, lovely and full, Brown's feet are trapped on the crease, and that is plumb!. 21/5 13.3 to DMW Rawlins, Wild and awful from Rawlins! That's the pressure to make something, anything happen... a horrible hack at a hint of width, another snick to first slip. Twenty-five for SEVEN!. 25/7 31.5 to SC Meaker, In the channel outside off, a hint of late away swing, Meaker plays outside his eyeline, and a thin edge ends a battling stand. 81/8 41.4 to JJ Carson, full length, tight line, a loose drive and Berg surges through the gate to hit the top of middle. 105/9

Ollie Robinson	26	7	58	5	2.23	127	0	1
0.2 to BJ Curran, Robinson wastes no time in getting in on the action! Full length, pitching on or around leg stump and thumping Curran's pad as he falls into a drive. Up goes the finger!. 0/1 6.3 to CO Thurston, . 36/3 14.1 to LA Procter, . 60/4 31.2 to RI Keogh, . 148/5 84.3 to WD Parnell, five for Robinson, and it's a typical scalp for Sussex's metronome. Round the wicket, cramping Parnell on the drive, a touch of movement to take the edge and a simple take for the keeper. 357/8
Joseph Sarro	14	1	71	2	5.07	51	0	0
1.5 to R Vasconcelos, back of a length, pinned on the knee-roll as Vasconcelos slides deeper into his crease! Sussex have hit back hard with the new ball!. 8/2 83.1 to AM Rossington, back of a length, Rossington swings into a pull but doesn't get hold of it at all. A simple chance to mid-on, and he misses out on a richly merited hundred. 354/7
Stuart Meaker	21	1	83	0	3.95	78	0	1

78.5 to SA Zaib, down on one knee for the sweep, but he's through the shot too soon! Up goes the finger, struck in front of leg stump, and there ends a superb maiden first-class hundred. 346/6
Aaron Thomason	3	0	30	0	10.00	9	0	2
Travis Head	4	1	23	1	5.75	14	0	0
99.6 to GK Berg, round the wicket, slapped airily to third man. Sussex will settle for that, as their ninth bowling option makes the breakthrough. 420/9

8.3 to AD Thomason, angled in on a full length, and squirted straight into the hands of fourth slip. And the fact that there are four slips is a testament to how dominant Northants have been. 34/2 16.3 to TGR Clark, . 68/4 44.1 to S van Zyl, . 159/5 54.6 to SC Meaker, . 194/8 58.1 to OE Robinson, . 205/9
