Sussex lose at Durham
7:00pm Thursday 13th September 2012 in Sport
Sussex ended their LV_ County Championship campaign with a defeat by five wickets with a day to spare against in-form Durham at Chester-le-Street.
Michael Richardson struck 58 and Ben Stokes a quickfire 45 as Durham chased down their victory target of 165 after dismissing Sussex for 180 in their second innings earlier today.
Despite their superb form at the end of the season, Durham had to settle for a sixth-placed finish in division one after a miserable start to the campaign which saw them fail to win any of their first ten matches.
Sussex, meanwhile, remain tenpoints ahead of them and will hang on to the fourth place prize money unless Nottinghamshire win tomorrow.
