Seamer Naved Arif took a league-best 41 and four, despite blowing a lively tail-ender, Luke Fletcher, who hit six three three four before he was the last of 39, the game was over by 11:40.
The result meant the two sides from positions of power in Division One table, finished fifth in Sussex 182 points, nine ahead of Nottinghamshire. With a pleasant morning sun and not a breath of wind, both teams could not have wished for better conditions for the final day of the season.

Skipper Chris Read was the first of four victims Arif, losing his stump at the end not to go forward. None of the tail Enders likely to continue in-swinging deliveries, and it is not surprising to see Graeme White vast clean, with Andre Adams advanced first slip two balls later. Arif
Fletcher pointed out the long handle to beat in three six six balls, but then Paul Franks sky Arif point before he holed out to long-off in the next over by Amjad Khan.
