  • Re: GLAMMY

    Robinson out for 102.
    If you see the wicket it's probably one of the best stumpings from one of the worst deliveries you've seen in a while.

      We're in a better position than most sides have been after 2 days against Durham. Seems like that collapse yesterday evening has cost us though. Still all to play for

        Glamorgan relying heavily on Carlson today, but, even if he maintains his fine form, he's going to need support from the other end and the tail owes him a much better response than they came up with first time around - hard to see beyond a Durham win though.

        Meanwhile, a very unusual dismissal elsewhere yesterday - why did he do it?

          Very strange. Not sure if he was just trying to be nice and hand the ball back to the keeper , certainly made his move towards the ball a bit early if that was the case. I do wonder mind, if he'd of fronted it , carried on with the 'catch' and handed it to the fielder, would he of got away with it? He kind of gave himself away with the way he pulled out.


          Good morning for Glamorgan, with 91 for the loss of 2 wickets. Still a lot of work to do though!

            Technically out but I would have been embarrassed to make that appeal.

            In my eyes worse than a mankad

              At tea the lead is 132 with a maximum of 33 overs left as two overs will be lost for any change of innings. Need to bat for around 17 more overs to make this safe.

                I remember Graham Gooch being given out in an Ashes test (think it was the one where Warne bowled Gatting with “the ball of the century”) when he deflected a ball that he thought was going to drop on his stumps with his hand. That was the sort of thing the law was brought in to stop I’d say, but this just looked like a reflex action done without thinking as there was no danger of the ball hitting the stumps. If it was on the village green and I was captain of the fielding team, I’d withdraw the appeal, but it’s not going to happen in professional sport.

                I’d given up on Glamorgan getting anything out of the game once Carlson was out without adding to his overnight score, but Cooke’s played a great innings and Durham’s fifty extras are definitely a bonus. Still say it’s about fifty/fifty at tea - this would have been a situation made for James Harris two or three seasons ago, but his solid batting technique seems to have deserted him these days.

                  Glamorgan almost there, 425-7. That’s 185 in front with a maximum of eighteen overs left - Cooke and Van DerGugten have just raised the 150 stand.

                  Match drawn, very good performance with a seriously weakened team.

                    Surrey chase down 501 to beat Kent - think it’s the second highest fourth innings winning total in the history of the game.

                      Glamorgan did well to get a draw out of that game, excellent innings from Cooke and Van der Gugten at the end

                        Walking (strutting?) away with the title.

                        Great effort by Glamorgan to save the game, thought it was going to be a procession after Carlson got out this morning. Unbeaten and within reach of promotion places still. Tight finish between Sussex and Worcester, Leicester on their way to victory at Bristol, so getting a little congested for the second spot atm.

                          That is an incredible chase. You’d never go into a fourth innings expecting not to be able to defend 500.

                            Dom Sibley doing his chances of a test recall no favours whatsoever. 140 not out off 415 balls, but held the innings together.
                            Incredible chase.

                              I dipped in and out of the Kent v Surrey game throughout today and it all looked pretty easy for Surrey. It’s before my time, but Surrey won seven successive titles in the fifties and they’re looking so dominant at the moment that they could be on for something similar in this era.

                                They are arguably the biggest club on the County Circuit so, probably have the biggest playing budget
