Australian spin sensation Shane Warne is coming to Hove after all.
Sussex fans looked as if they would be denied the opportunity to watch the Australian leg spinner, Hampshire's overseas player this season, because of international commitments.
The counties were due to meet for the only time this summer in a Benson and Hedges Cup zonal game at Hove on April 16.
But the match has been put to April 23 to accomodate live TV coverage and that means that both Warne and Sussex's overseas signing Michael Bevan will both be available.
Sussex Chief Executive Dave Gilbert said: "It's good news because Michael will be available for another game and it will give supporters the chance to see a top performer like Shane playing at Hove."
