Sussex 87-4 - Target 144
That is a big shot!
John Simpson with a powerful sweep to midwicket for four. That helps to alleviate some of the pressure.
With three other singles, that is a good over for Sussex.

BBC SussexPujara is the key wicket here.
Just to reiterate for those who perhaps don't know, floodlights cannot be used this season at Hove.
It's a decision that's been made by the club.

Northants had high hopes of chasing down a final day victory, needing to take seven wickets, while the visitors needed another 230 runs just to make the hosts bat again.
Glamorgan will return to Sophia Gardens for the next match against Middlesex, starting on Friday, while Northants are away to Leicestershire.
'Sussex are making hard work of this'published at 16:09 British Summer Time 22 April
Sussex 78-4 - Target 144
Adrian Harms
BBC SussexIt's really exciting in the gathering gloom at Hove.
Sussex are making hard work of scoring these 144 runs.
The big question is, can they beat the rain?
Not outpublished at 16:06 British Summer Time 22 April
Sussex 78-4 - Target 144
Is that out?
No. John Simpson sees the ball land in first slip's hands from a Zafar Gohar ball, but the umpire is not interested.
May have been the thigh pad.
Now the ball ends up at first slip. Again, not out! Thigh pad again.
HAMPSHIRE DRAW WITH WARWICKSHIREpublished at 16:03 British Summer Time 22 April
Hampshire 365 v Warwickshire 455 & 205-4
Hopes of an exciting finish at the Utilita Bowl are ended by the weather as the umpires call the game off because of rain.
Warwickshire added 159 to their 46-0 at the start for the loss of four wickets, with in-form Rob Yates making an unbeaten 84.
Spinner Liam Dawson claimed two wickets for match figures of 7-218.
Hampshire will face Surrey at The Oval on Friday, while Warwickshire take on Notts at Edgbaston.

Sussex 78-4 - Target 144
A target of 144 in T20 would be a doddle. In 50-over cricket? No problem.
But in the red-ball game, there is always that little bit of jeopardy.
Shots like that, however, from Cheteshwar Pujura reduce that as he drives handsomely for four.

Simpson adds a single off his first ball from Zafar Gohar and is off the mark.
'I haven’t thought about England call-up at all'published at 15:55 British Summer Time 22 April
Somerset 454 v Nottinghamshire 193 & 440-2 - Match drawn
Image source, Rex FeaturesRain curtailed Joe Clarke's pursuit of further batting records and left him 17 runs shy of a best first-class score as he finished with an unbeaten 213 in Notts draw with Somerset at Taunton.
The 26-year-old followed up centuries against Essex and Worcestershire to take his average to 96 from six innings this season.
Clarke's fine start may well be enough to spark talk of an England call-up.
“For the last three years I haven’t thought about it at all," Clarke told BBC Nottingham.
"Whether that’s because I haven’t scored enough runs or just subconsciously tried to ignore conversations about it, I’m not sure, but right now I feel my game is in a good place.
"I want to carry on scoring runs for Nottinghamshire and better the 1,000 I got last season."
He added: "I’ve had Ben Duckett in my ear all week telling me to stop getting out after getting to a hundred. He told me to go on and get a proper one here and he’s right."

Sussex 479 & 70-4 v Gloucestershire 417 & 205
And that wicket is the cue for the players to leave the field for a 20-minute break.
A great session of cricket as Sussex picked up the four Gloucestershire wickets needed to conclude that innings.
But their chase of 144 is not going so smoothly with four wickets to Zafar Gohar keeping things interesting.
WICKET Coles c Charlesworth b Gofar 10published at 15:40 British Summer Time 22 April
Sussex 70-4 - Target 144
And Zafar Gohar has a fourth wicket!
That is a terrific ball from the Pakistan left-arm spinner as he gets enough turn to take the edge of James Coles' bat and it's well taken by a close-in second slip.
Gohar has 4-25 - great bowling!

Sussex 70-3 - Target 144
Too straight from Zafar Gohar to James Coles and it's a second four in as many overs as a poor leg-stump ball is turned away to the boundary.
Gohar is straining hard for wickets...

Sussex 66-3 - Target 144
A good Tom Price over is ruined, but in fairness, James Coles' on-drive is worthy of four runs as he brings the target down to 79.
And Coles adds one more to the total.
'You don't think of Pujara as a quick scorer'published at 15:34 British Summer Time 22 April
Sussex 61-3 - Target 144
Ed Seabourne
BBC Radio BristolYou don't think of Pujara necessarily as a quick scorer and when you seen him play in one day cricket this is what he'll do.
He'll put the bad balls to the boundary and then he'll hit the good ball for singles.
