Match Details
Cracknell got a small support from Jack Davies as the duo added 36-runs for the third wicket. Then in the 11th over Obed McCoy struck twice in the matter of 4-balls. Davies (14 off 13) and Martin Andersson (1 off 2) were his bunnies in that over.
Amidst this collapse, Cracknell continued to be positive and completed his cracking fifty. He eventually got out trying to up the ante. He received standing ovation as he was walking back to the pavilion at his score of 68 from 49 balls, including 8-fours and 2-maximums.
Middlesex continued to tumble as the wickets continued to fall in clusters. Obed McCoy had another double wicket over in the 17th of the innings. This time he picked the wickets of Luke Hollman (5 off 8) and Toby Ronald-Jones (1 off 3).
In the end, some lusty blows from Chris Green (22* off 11) steered the batting side well over the 160-run mark, eventually bundling out for 163 in 19.4 overs.
For Sussex, Obed McCoy (4-0-30-4), and Steven Finn (4-0-29-3) were the pick of the bowlers. Tymal Mills struck twice but was expensive at the same time.
