Despite Haines' impressive performance, Sussex reached 351-6 at stumps on day three, trailing by 20 runs. Saif Zaib, the left-arm spinner for Northamptonshire, removed both set batters and Sussex captain John Simpson, but Fynn Hudson-Prentice and Danny Lamb fought back with aggressive batting in the final hour.
