Ollie Robinson took seven wickets as Worcestershire were bowled out for 264 in the County Championship, with Sussex closing the day at 61 for one
As he stood at second slip watching Ollie Robinson finesse a sublime seven-wicket haul with the splendour of Worcester Cathedral as a backdrop,could have been forgiven for invoking the spirit of WG Grace and muttering “they came to see me bat not you bowl”.
“I think it works both ways,” said Robinson, fresh from figures of seven for 59 and 17 overs of solid graft. “He’s obviously a very good player and I think he will score runs regardless of whether he faces me or not. We get a look at each other, but I don’t think it makes a big difference in the grand scheme of things.
Once the PA announcer had amusingly declared the rules of engagement at the toss – “no spitting, no biting and no swearing” – and Pujara called correctly, Robinson was simply a cut above the rest. His opening burst of seven overs, four for 30 was ruinous stuff, profiting from Ed Pollock’s loose drive, trapping Azhar Ali lbw, nicking off Jack Haynes with some extra bounce and then detonating Jake Libby’s middle stump.
