After John Simpson’s unexpected onslaught at Chelmsford on Friday it was the turn of Tom Clark to produce the best T20 innings of his career at a sweltering Canterbury on Monday. 

At Chelmsford on Friday, Simpson hit eight sixes in a 23-ball 63 as Sussex chased down a target of 192 with four overs to spare. Three days later Clark set the tone with 79 off just 28 balls but it wasn’t enough to propel Sussex to victory.
