http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Prior-c1984 gets green light to play for Sussex – Cricket News Update
Sussex received a massive boost in their quest to reach the semi finals of the Friends Life t20 for first time in three years after the England and Wales Cricket board allowed Matt Prior to take part in the team’s quarter final against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gloucestershire-c785, at
County Ground, Hove, on July 24.
England's limited-overs captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Somerset-c843 at Taunton.
Johannesburg born Prior has so far played 77 T20s and amassed 1773 runs with the aid of 1 century and 10 fifties. His batting average of 26.86 and strike rate of 145.92 demonstrates how lethal he can be in the shortest format.
England Wicketkeeper Prior was in sensational form with the bat for his county in the group stages, scoring 187 runs at an average of 46.75, and an astonishing strike rate of 217.44.
Coming in at No.3, he scored 81 runs off just 37 deliveries against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hampshire-c789 earlier this month.
"Matt has been unbelievable and it's hard to believe http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mark-Jeffrey-Gronow-Davis-c74651.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mark-Andrew-Robinson-c74518, has urged the home crowd to roar their side to victory and break the semi finals jinx.
“There have been mitigating factors in the last two seasons. We were one overseas player down and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Murray-Goodwin-c2040 got injured fielding last year,” said Robinson.
Sussex sharks topped the South Group with 15 points, winning 6 out of their 10 matches. They lost only one game to bottom placed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Surrey-c851 by virtue of the Duckworth/Lewis method.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SB-Styris-c2463, also returned to the squad after recovering from a thumb injury sustained during the group stages.
“This year we have got Matt back and Scott Styris is fit to bowl so we are in a much better place,” added http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Robinson-c86348.
