GLAMMY

[chrisp_1927]

Good from these 2. Giving us a fighting chance of a draw. Looks like there could be rain from around 3 pm tomorrow aswell. The way Ingram and Hamza are playing, I bloody well hope that we see Ingram and Marnus lining up together. This Hamza looks an absolute donkey(hope he proves me wrong), Ingram has been fantastic.

I'd be asking the groundstaff at Sophia gardens to do everything they can to produce a turning pitch. Harris gets decent movement on grippy pitches, get prem in the side along with crane. Because this pace attack is toothless

[Father Dougal]

73 in front with 3 wickets left. Could be close finish.......

And off for light / rain. Fingers crossed. Don’t want to be bottom.

Bit of a famine or feast season for Northeast at the moment.

And averaging over 100 comfortably.

Should get 1k runs before end of May without too much problem.

[chrisp_1927]

Too early to say we're safe . Another half hour of rain and we should be !

[Madassa]

Match abandoned for another draw.

Just had a look - he needs 438 runs from 3 games.
Other than his 2 big scores, his next top score in 6 innings is 29.

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

I make that 17 draws in their last 19 county championship matches.
The polar opposite of Cardiff City.

Yorkshire played this game on a pitch that had already been used for a four day match this season because they already felt that they needed a win even at this early stage of the season. The ball was turning a lot on the first day, but the wicket still got easier as the game went on - Yorkshire would have won it but for the weather, but the commentators thought Glamorgan’s 221 in the first innings was a decent score in the conditions, yet there were nearly 900 runs scored for the loss of fourteen wickets after that.

I think the only games we didn't draw last season were a win and a loss against Worcestershire.

Yes, but I think it’s ominous that we’ve been hanging on for draws in our last two matches since early on day two - next up, top of the table Sussex on Friday.

[Dave Blue]

We seem to be getting into a rescue act in second innings. Bonus point total is poor.

Yorkshire were averaging 5.5/over when they declared. This does expose how weak our bowling is which is why we can't get anywhere close to winning a game and have been relying.on certain batters to stave off defeats.

To be fair to him, he's certainly proving me wrong this session. Sussex 5 down, Glamorgan on top

[Lord Worcester]

Before a really annoying 8th wicket partnership. Typical glammy

Timely wicket. That was getting very frustrating

Over 100 added already for last 3. And not done. So frustrating

[the other bob wilson]

I see Brendan McCullum flew over from New Zealand and played a round of golf with Jimmy Anderson, during which he told the man I think is rightly regarded as England’s best ever bowler that from the end of this season England are going to be looking to build a squad for the next Ashes tour when Anderson will be 43, it looks like his last test will be at Old Trafford in late August.

Glamorgan finished 21 in reply to Sussex’s 276 - that’s more than they looked like getting at one time, but not a bad day overall.

No other county managed to take 10 wickets on day 1, so credit where credit's due. Can we take 10 more though?

[poc]

not looking good 41-4 at the moment

[the other bob wilson]

136-4 at lunch, Carlson and Ingram have put on ninety odd.

[the other bob wilson]

259-4, hundreds for Ingram and Carlson.

[the other bob wilson]

Three hundred partnership, 341/4. Is the Cardiff wicket running true to form and can we expect three or four wickets a day, if we’re lucky, from now on?
