GLAMMY

Re: GLAMMY

Why are Glamorgan using a wicket which was very slow originally for a third consecutive game? There were two nicks which didn’t carry to the wicketkeeper in the first few overs and it got more and more slow and low as the ball softened. I’d be quite confident that we could win this with Neser playing, not too sure we can do without him - raining now which favours Gloucestershire.

We don’t get much luck with the weather in Cardiff. This faint drizzle will just carry on for hours. Think this will be one point each which is not ideal

Re: GLAMMY

That was very poor from Weighell. If that was Carlson it would have been out

Re: GLAMMY

Another disappointing defeat. Too many players contributing very little. Are Carey and Smith unfit? Give them s chance over Weighell who offers very little.

Threw that game away from a strong position. Really poor effort

Re: GLAMMY

Looking forward to Friday. An in form Ben McDermott is one of the most destructive t20 batsman around. Was brilliant in last years big bash and has really hit form for Hampshire. Hopefully we get him first ball, but an exciting player to watch live !


Not sure what the forecast is like, but would be nice to see a big crowd.

Re: GLAMMY

very poor home performance and another season's T20 gone

Re: GLAMMY

Gloucestershire as the away side appeared to pick a bowling line up far better suited to that pitch than we did - they had three spinners, we had one on what seemed a clear pace off the ball pitch to me, but what do I know ?

Re: GLAMMY

The glamorgan 2nd x1 has reached t20 finals day. Squad that includes Joe Cooke, Salter, lukas carey, ruaridh smith, Billy root and callum Taylor .


Shame 1 or 2 them haven't played a bit more for the first x1. Ruaridh Smith has always been one of our best t20 bowlers, surely if he's fit he should be in the side along with neser and hogan. He's a better bowler than weighell or harris

Yep really poor. Smith was excellent in t20 back in 2018 and it mystifies me why Weighell is preferred to him.

I really hope a few make it into the first x1 tomorrow.

132 off 69 balls for tom bevan. If he doesn't start tomorrow Maynard has really lost the plot

He won’t be in the squad. It’s already been announced with McIlroy brought in because Neser has covid.
Maynard is very rigid. He pigeon holes certain players into certain formats and that’s it.

I'm hoping it can be changed, although as you say it is highly unlikely. I think this win by the 2nd x1 certainly vindicates us lot on here who've been moaning about the team composition.

Re: GLAMMY

Is it my telly or are Glamorgan really playing on a purple pitch? Whatever colour it is, it looks another poor, slow, low one - I thought T20 cricket was supposed to be all about big hitting and boundaries.

Hampshire 34-2 in the seventh overs with the commentators talking about a par score of about 130.
