title-cHASING Sussex Sharks should be at full strength for tomorrow's top-of-the-table tussle with Durham in the totesport League at Arundel (1pm).

Johan van der Wath (hamstring) and Ian Ward (flu) are both expected to be fit to face the second division leaders.

The Sharks will move to within two points of Durham with two games in hand should they extend their winning run in the competition to four games.

Director of cricket Peter Moores said: "If nothing else, the unbeaten record we've had since May 1 is worth preserving.

"We're playing good one-day cricket at the moment and there is tremendous competition for places which keeps everyone on their toes. We're looking forward to a really good game."

There will be no Steve Harmison or Mike Hussey in the Durham side but their squad has been strengthened by the arrival of Ashley Noffke and Nathan Astle as overseas players.

Tomorrow's line-up (probable): Ward, Prior, Yardy, Goodwin, Adams, van der Wath, Hopkinson, Martin-Jenkins, Wright, Mushtaq Ahmed, Kirtley.
