Encouraging. Going to the game on Sunday. More of the same please
There's barely any competition, but that has to be Glamorgan's best win of the season. I still think that all of the cricket we've played before yesterday was just a warm up for what, pretty obviously, is the priority this year - in essence, Glamorgan's season lasts from 6 July to 17 August when we entertain Surrey in our last T20 group game, with the hope that there'll be an encore for Finals day on 15 September.
Agreed. I don’t like it at all. The one positive is that the weather is good so hopefully we will see some decent crowds at Sophia Gardens over the next few weeks and the club will bring in some much needed funds. In turn that might increase the chances of bringing senior players to the club next season.
Looks like Hants "did a Glammy"Radio Wales commentators said that we Glamorgan's best ever T20 win (by 63 runs).
That's the thing about the T20 game though, anybody can beat anybody on their day.
I look on it as the equivalent to a pelanty shoot out without the preamble.
Went to the England v India match last night and although it was a great night with lots of fun, drink and banter, the cricket kind of comes second for me.
Whilst genuinely pleased for them and hopeful that finals day comes to fruition, this win merely papers over the cracks as far as Glammy's performances are concerned and it's a huge gamble to put all your eggs in one basket as what looks like is happening

Mac. Was it a sell out at the Gardens last night?
Yes mate. Although there were empty seats, it was billed as a sell out, there were big screens and bars chokka block.
Fantastic atmosphere and good banter. I find the Indians such a lovely people.
Days like yesterday do make you understand why the shorter game has become so popular.
Hope the Glammy game is as enjoyable for you
Going to be fun and games trying to get to Sophia Gardens tomorrow, what with all the roads shut for the Velothon
Oh bollocks. Didn’t realise this.
Look up Velothon fred
Town practically shut down from North Road (Nazareth House) and Column Road is nose to tail. Takes about an hour from Nazareth House to Greyfriars Road
I will be coming off the M4 to head into Cardiff. Any suggestions as to the best junction to come off at?Look up Velothon fred

He means Cowbridge Road East, otherwise it's a Helluva walk
Depending on what time you get into Cardiff and you dont leave it too late, you could come down the A48M past the hospital and come through Llandaff. There is car parking around Llandaff fields / Pontcanna.
Not sure which roads are closed for the bikes mind so it would be worth checking.

Only problem with this, is Cardiff Road, which is the turning for Llandaff Fields, is one poxy car at a time and you will queueing as far back as the HospitalHe means Cowbridge Road East, otherwise it's a Helluva walk

Back to square one

Very disappointing. The fielding was poor and the bowling weak. Sussex won at a canter with Wright and Evans in complete control.
And they’ve put all their eggs in the T20 basket
Indian cricket fans are superb.Perfect Friday evening for cricket! beautiful weather, packed crowd and close finish !
Knowledgeable, passionate, friendly.
Always a joy to watch games with them 👍
Thought the batting lacked urgency too.
Several sharp singles and 2s turned down.
Didn’t really try to attack the spinner, who got 2-27 off his 4.
Still had loads of wickets in hand, needed to take more risks and could maybe have got 190
Don’t think opening the bowling with Salter was a good move, Wagg was awful bowling far too short and Meschede not up to much either.
Don’t understand why Glam don’t try to get a top class spinner in if they want to win the T20
Fielding was tough. The outfield was very hard, fast and bumpy in areas.
Both sides struggled.
Wright is our nemeses
Spot on Tim. Ingram batted really well but his running beteeen the wicket was dreadful. Cooke was nearly run out going for a second run which Ingram should have made but was not remotely interested in. We also got just two runs in the 17th over with loads of wickets in hand. Agree about the spinner too. We have stuck with Salter for too long
I think Salter is OK, but we need 2 quality ones for the T20.. especially at Sophia which tends to favour the slow bowlers.
It seems season after season that opposition spinners come to the Swalec and do well
Replacement for Marsh named - about as good as we could get under the circumstances.

It’s a shame about Marsh and as you say due to time scale we’re not likely to get a better replacement
