At long last
Will hopefully be an excellent addition to our bowling attack.
Do Glamorgan season ticket holders get the opportunity to buy tickets for the ashes in Australia?
I am going to Melbourne for the boxing day Test and tickets will be at a premium.
In answer to your question, no.
You jammy bastard going over there for the boxing day test. I've tried and tried talking my wife into going over there for it but she's having none of it.
We are visiting the outlaws who are mad cricket fans , when I suggested the Ashes it was a no brainer, couple of days in Melbourne , probably do 2 days at the cricket.Not really a cricket buff but love the atmosphere and the refreshments .
Sadly Glamorgan have become a joke team these days.
Nothing at all to get excited about. Shame.
I dunno. We have a decent bowling attack and some good youngsters.If our batsmen improve and they should with Ingram and Cooke playing in the four day stuff we might surprise people but we do seem a bit South African orientated these days.
4 bowlers injured

That is ridiculous. I wondered why Hogan,Wagg and Bragg were not involved in the friendlies. I knew Van Der Gugten was injured but this is mad.
Hogan played in one of the pre season matches, so he may have got injured then. A few years back there were stories about how the Glamorgan players were now full time pros who began pre season training in something like November, is that still the case? If it is, then you have to say that it's not doing them much good!
The bowlers like Wagg and Hogan are getting older now, Still think an attack of DeLange, Carey, Podmore and Meschede, could work out ok.
Batting looks a little better of Rudolph, Selman, Lloyd, Ingram, Cooke, Donald, Carlson , Meschede. I'd say spinners miss out today, With Carlson bowling the overs if required, seeing as its April.
I'd like to see to see a competitive season with some progression from the youngsters. I dont expect a promotion year. Like to see some good cricket in the white ball stuff as well.
Glamorgan win toss and bat, spinners miss out, as expected really.
This is shocking, even by our standards.
Looks like cricketeters have gone the way of the modern day footballers, pampered with no balls (no pun intended)
You mean Cooke bowled Buck for a duck? Fùck!
On the bright side at least Leicestershire are 16 points behind us (for now)
Well, they managed to get to a hundred - 101 all out and Northants 17-0.
Glamorgan played seven batsmen and four of them were out for ducks, while two others failed to get into double figures - you can't jump to too many conclusions on the first day of the season, but our specialist batting hasn't been good enough for about three years now, so it's hard to see why things should change this season and yet all we ever seem to do is sign seam bowlers.
Northants 29-3, Meschede just bowled a player off a no ball, and then had him dropped in the slips the next ball.
Sounds a like a wonderful wicket!
Perhaps our doubts of our Glambags were a little premature!
Hundred 10th wicket partnership coming up
We don't have any openers. None of Rudolph,Selman, and Lloyd are good enough to open. They are always out cheaply meaning the middle order are exposed to the new ball.
I don't think a middle order of Bragg at 3,Ingram 4,Donald at 5,Cooke at 6 and Wagg at 7 is too bad.
Bragg needs to revert to being an opener again as we will at least then hsve one relatively competent opening bat.
I had assumed Northants won the toss and elected to bowl but no Rudolph did and chose to bat in overcast and damp conditions. He really is useless
^^^^^^THIS,THIS and THIS again^^^^^^
He must have had a reason, but be fooked if I can think what that reason was.
That or Hugh Morris to come bring himself out of retirement to open.
Disastrous main line bats no question.
197-6
Can you believe it. Great weather predicted this afternoon,tomorrow and Sunday and he opts to bat in the damp.
