Matthew Maynard makes a welcome return to Glamorgan:

Great to see him back. Should never have been forced to leave in the first place.Originally Posted by Nick
^^^^THIS^^^^ let’s see what he can do with the young batsmen, so glad that he’s back
Great news!
Was hoping this might come to fruition, seems all have decided to wipe the slate clean, a lot of water under the bridge. Can only be good for the county
I missed this at the time, but Will Bragg retired last week because of an illness which dogged him for most of last season and has still not been diagnosed. To be honest, he played so little last season that I had forgotten all about him by the end of it, but we couldn't half have done with a fit and in form Bragg in the four day game - he was our most reliable batsman in 2015 and 2016 I'd say.
Hope he does well in his new career and that he gets to know what it is he has been suffering from.

Also, good to see the very promising Kiran Carlson committing himself to Glamorgan until 2020.

What a shame for Will Bragg. He has been our most consistent batsman in four day cricket over the past few years so it was odd that he played so little in 2017. He can hold his head high.
Carlson is definitely a bright prospect although Uni will limit his appearances in the first part of the seasons ahead.
Yep good news for us although he may be involved in Test matches for Aus later in the summer.Amazed nobody signed Ingram.
:auction".... you've gotta laugh
I see Stokes went for a fortune but what happens if he's doin' bird?
Yup Marsh and Ingram not in IPL is Glamorgan's gain.
Is it still only January?
Lools like it could have been better though LB.
Okay we get to host the T20 comp but so do the grounds hosting the Ashes tests, with the exception of Trent Bridge who have been given a 50 over sweetener.
No tests is a bummer.
Yes especially as the last ashes game at the Swalec was such a success
Wasn't it just. The first one was an absolute belter too, managing a draw in the first test and eventually winning the series. Monty Panesar, hanging around for "ever".
Can't say I'm surprised really though.
I’m very disappointed. This is a real snub. I can understand not getting an Ashes Test in 2019 but to be ignored in 2023 is very poor.
Everyone bar the "big 6" have been ignored for all Test matches haven't they? If they're trying to kill Test cricket, they're giving it a good go here.
Although the Ashes tests at Cardiff can, rightly, be called successes, I always think the woeful crowds for the other test match played here, against Sri Lanka, gave ammunition to those who feel we do not deserve test cricket in Cardiff.
At the moment i dont think the club wants test cricket. I dont think any ground can say we deserve an Ashes test, but we dont want any other test matches.
Personally i think everything that happened yesterday exceeded expectations, we were on the fringes for a franchise (and we got one). We have regular one-day and T20 Internationals (which attract good crowds).
I think they have looked at Wales in a favorable light rather than snubbing the area.
If that is the reality then fair enough although the Ashes Tests are the big prizes here. I’m astonished Headingley was favoured over Trent Bridge
Moving on...July 31st..going for our 5th succesive 20/20 victory at The Oval in front of 20,000.
And so it begins

That looks like the team that will start the Championship season with the exception of Shaun Marsh coming into the team for either Murphy or Lloyd. Good to see there don’t appear to be many injuries this time around.
Is Brown available for early season matches?
I think so. He has been involved in the friendlies as has Carlson. Not sure at what point their studies take precedence.
