Sussex have parted company with head coach Mark Davis by mutual consent.

Davis represented Sussex as a player and coach for 17 years, but he leaves Hove after taking charge of the club in November 2015.

Sussex finished fourth in Division Two of the County Championship this year and the club also did not progress from the group stages of the T20 Blast and the One-Day Cup.

Davis said: "I have established a very strong squad including Jofra Archer, Stiaan van Zyl and Laurie Evans and given opportunity to a number of young players who will no doubt achieve great things in the future.

"The professional squad is very well set for the challenges ahead and I am confident these players will bring silverware to the club.
