Re: GLAMMY

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

Re: GLAMMY

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.

Re: GLAMMY

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

That or Hugh Morris to come bring himself out of retirement to open.
Disastrous main line bats no question.

Can you believe it. Great weather predicted this afternoon,tomorrow and Sunday and he opts to bat in the damp.

Re: GLAMMY

More than that, since last season the visiting captain has the option of bowling first. We would have declined that option then the toss would have taken place as it normally does. Bizarre.

He must have had a reason, but be fooked if I can think what that reason was.

Re: GLAMMY

Glamorgan did well to take the last four Northants wickets quite quickly and I see Jacques Rudolph was saying it was the type of wicket that someone could get a double hundred on if they could get in. Well, it won't be him, Selman or Lloyd because they're all out as Glamorgan lunched at 32-3, still 177 runs behind - Lloyd, who based on the little I've seen of him, looks completely unsuited to bat at three in the four day game, was out for his second duck of the game.

Lloyd made a bright start to last season and then endured a miserable time constantly losing his wicket for next to nothing.Until we get decent openers he will be exposed to the new ball almost immediately. We could losethis by an innings.

Re: GLAMMY

It's not looking great.
Every year I have hope. Problem is this year it lasted one innings.
