The largest difference between a team first and second innings in Test Cricket is I think 550.
I don't know what the overall first class record is, but we're now at 601.
My first visit also and what a day it was! Labuschagne and Carlson were outstanding. As well as the Glammy fans I noticed there were quite a few Aussies. I see we got to lunch with still a bit of the tail to wag. A bit more to do but looks more promising than could imagined after the first two days. Only sorry that Carlson didn't get a double hundred.
Wonderful that there are so many true Glammy supporters on here.
I'm starting to think the win is slipping away. If only they'd declared a few overs before tea it might have been on. Oh well....
Not sure why they didn't have a bowl at Sussex for 45 overs or so. Nothing to lose at that point and the home side would have been exhausted after 2 days in the field and possibly only 9 players fit to bat.
Sussex faced an over by Labuschagne and the game was drawn with them at 1-0.
It might have been one of those awful pitches which gets slower and lower as the game goes on, but it was still a superb effort by Glamorgan to save a game which looked all over at Tea on the first day - the draw means they take seven points and not the paltry two it looked like they were going to get.

Also crucially stopped Sussex getting the win.
Durham seem to be running away with top spot with 4 wins already but we still within a win of 2nd spot.
If someone would have told me glamorgan would play 6 championship games and be undefeated I would assume it must have been a hell of a wet summer! However it really hasn't and to be undefeated after 6 games is very impressive considering how weak we have been for 15 years or so.

Think we might have to accept that we won’t see our two Australians again this season - Neser’s done just about all he can to force his way into the Aussie squad.
