Do you want some of our runs?

384 - 5 3pm day 3, still in 1st innings. I think we might hold on for a draw?

I'm optimistic of a draw for us too. Mercifully they only made 190-odd, I think - so the follow-on isn't a concern.

Malan may have been a decent signing.

Thompson might also be proving why the Yorkshire hierarchy let Bresnan depart too....

PLus Hameed and Tom Barber: bbc.co.uk

Compared to Yorkshire's only signing being Malan.

And they let Josh Shaw, Tim Bresnan, Alex Lees, Karl Carver, Matt Taylor and Bilal Anjam go (ok the latter two hadn't played many games)

No side should be opening the bowling with Pete Trego. No reflection on him, by the way, but he was not even getting a bowl when he played last year...

Lancashire following on. I'm pretty confident (even with Peter Moores at the helm) that we will avoid defeat.

Sussex seem to be wanting to get a result out of this. Certainly the draw is more use to us than it is them. An Essex win remains the least likely available outcome. If the weather there is the same as here (very dark, intermittent light showers) a draw is likely.
