  2. Sussex require 21 off 30 ballspublished at 15 overs

    Sussex 120-3

    There's a hush at Chester-le-Street. The home fans know this one is done and dusted.

    Still no sixes this evening - where's Christopher Gayle when you need him?! Might be a bit cold for the World Boss to be fair.

  3. Sussex 117-3published at 14.2 overs

    Sharks need 24 from 34 balls

    Yes sir! Laurie Evans skips down the track and belts Mark Wood through the covers. Four.

    Evans is into the 40s.

  4. Sussex 113-3 (target 141)published at 14 overs

    Evans 37, Wiese 12

    Sussex are strolling this.

    David Wiese cuts Ben Whitehead away to the rope and follows it up with a couple through the covers.

    28 needed from the final six overs. Easy peasy.

    Sussex 102-3

    Laurie Evans is the key for the Sharks now.

    He's nudged and nurdled his way up to 35. Durham need more wickets and quickly.

    "Woody's backed his captain up there.

    "He's brought him on to make the breakthrough and its a fantastic piece of bowling.

    "Maybe he'll send a few jitters into the Sussex dugout with that."

    Rawlins c & b Wood 42 (Sussex 98-3, target 141)

    Brilliant pace bowling from Mark Wood.

    The England man fires one in at the chin of Delray Rawlins and the young all-rounder can only fend it up into the air. Wood takes the simplest of catches.

    Durham are just about clinging onto this game.

  8. Sussex 97-2 (target 141)published at 12 overs

    Evans 33, Rawlins 42

    It's a tight over from Nathan Rimmington with just six from it, but Sussex are happy to knock the singles for the moment.

    They need 44 off 48 balls. Mark Wood is back into the attack.

  9. Watch: Rawlins gets a 'let-off'published at 20:43 British Summer Time 24 August 2018

    A great chance for Durham Jets to take the wicket of Delray Rawlins... but Nathan Rimmington shelled a straightforward catch in the deep. A big moment.

    Henry Clark: Let's appreciate the thought of watching Delray Rawlins and Jofra Archer playing white-ball cricket for England in a few years.

  11. Sussex require 50 from 54 ballspublished at 11 overs

    Sussex 91-2

    It's all looking very comfortable for the Sharks at the moment.

    Delray Rawlins is 10 away from a fine maiden T20 fifty.

  12. Sussex 85-2published at 10.1 overs

    Evans 29, Rawlins 38

    More punishment from the Sussex batsmen.

    Ben Whitehead bowls a full toss and Laurie Evans belts the spinner through the leg-side for four.

    The Sharks need less than a run a ball now. 56 required off 59. Oh, it's a no-ball as well.

  13. Sussex need 60 off 60 ballspublished at 10 overs

    Sussex 81-2

    So, a nice and simple equation at the halfway point - the Sharks need 60 off the last 10 overs.

    It should be a piece of cake from here.

  14. Rawlins 'targeted this over'published at 20:37 British Summer Time 24 August 2018

    Durham 140-7 v Sussex 80-2

    Jake Ball
    Notts and England bowler on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra

    "I think Rawlins has targeted this over to try and put the pressure back on Durham.

    "If he can get a 15-run over it really puts them in a good position going into the final over."

  15. Sussex 79-2published at 9.3 overs

    Evans 24, Rawlins 37

    The boundaries keep on coming for Delray Rawlins.

    The left-hander swats Paul Collingwood towards cow corner and the fielder can't stop it.

    Marvellous batting from the youngster.

    Durham 140-7 v Sussex 69-2

    Notts and England bowler on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra

    "It was a chance you'd have expected him to take.

    "It came at him quite flat, you'd take nine out of 10 of those and that was the one.

    "But when you're defending a low score you have to take half chances and all the chanes you can."

  17. Sussex 73-2published at 9.1 overs

    Evans 24, Rawlins 31

    Confidence from Delray Rawlins.

    The 20-year-old gets down on one knee and flicks Paul Collingwood down to the fine-leg boundary.

  18. dropped catch

    Dropped catchpublished at 9 overs

    Sussex 69-2

    Oh wow, Nathan Rimmington has shelled a great chance.

    Delray Rawlins smacks Ben Whitehead towards long off where Rimmington spills it. It was a comfortable height but it bounced off the Aussie.

    That could be a game-changer.

  19. Sussex need 76 off 72 ballspublished at 8 overs

    Sussex 65-2

    A few good overs for Sussex and they're now in the driving seat. It's been led by Delray Rawlins' who's looked a million dollars from the start of his innings.

  20. 'Durham need to get Rawlins'published at 20:30 British Summer Time 24 August 2018

    Durham 140-7 v Sussex 65-2

    Kate Cross
    England bowler on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra

    "Rawlins has looked comfortable against all sorts of bowling.

    "Durham are going to have to try and work out a way of getting him out."
