Ollie Robinson quickly built a reputation at Sussex as an an adaptable county player capable of occasional outstanding contributions, but his consistency under the guidance of a new coach, Jason Gillespie, in 2018 came as a surprise. Robinson took 74 Division Two wickets as Sussex narrowly missed promotion, second only to Kent;s New Zealand international Matt Henry, bowling with more pace and discipline than at any time in his career. Career-best figures of 7 for 23 in a pre-season affair against Loughborough University augered well and he did not let up, winning new respect as an ever-present threat. In 2019, he furthered his reputation as one of the leading new-ball bowlers in the county system, taking 63 Championship wickets including 8 for 34 (and 14 for 135 in the match) against Middlesex.
