Mike Yardy manages a smile at wet Arundel today
Sussex’s local derby with Surrey in the Championship is off to a false start.
The first day’s play was abandoned without a ball being bowled today due to rain.
Conditions are expected to improve tomorrow, when play is due to start at 11am.
Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting is among the Surrey team waiting to get into action.
