Re: GLAMMY

Glammy still 230 behind with 7 wickets left. Likely to lose tomorrow if weather holds?

Looks like the weather is helping us out so far. Session lost already

Weather did us a favour.

However every team has played 3 games but only 2 games have seen any side win.

Seem to be so many draws now?

What I found really strange was that one of those 2 results came at Lords. The absolute road turned into a pitch where 246 played 159 in the first innings.

I always used to quite enjoy the low scoring early season games. Seems like the ECB got their arse in their hand to such an extent over the likes of Darren Stevens taking wickets, that they've mandated flat pitches and a stupid ball.

Re: GLAMMY

Glamorgan return to action today with a game against Yorkshire at Headingley - Ed Byron is fit again after missing our first three games, still no sign of Timm Van Der Gugten though.

Also, commiserations to the friends and family of Worcestershire's Josh Baker (best known I suppose for being hit for thirty four in an over by Ben Stokes a couple of years ago), a very promising spin bowler and hard hitting batsman who died this week a day after he had been taking wickets for Worcestershire's seconds - he was only twenty.

RIP.

Yes, read about Josh Baker yesterday, extremely sad affair, so young, RIP.

Re: GLAMMY

Glamorgan 93-2 on a pitch which is turning, but then the same thing was happening on the first day against Derbyshire and that one flattened out.

Re: GLAMMY

Further to my comment about the wicket, it seems it’s going to deteriorate

Didn’t realise they’d played the extra half an hour which definitely didn’t work in Glamorgan’s favour.

Re: GLAMMY

Very tough first day. But we did win the toss. Shame billy got out then.

I didn't watch much of yesterday's play, but I saw his dismissal - he was not happy with the decision and the Yorkshire commentators were saying that, if there was an edge involved, it was a very, very faint one.

He said after he thought he was given out lbw.

This trip up there has turned into one of them…….

Think it’s going to be a long hard season. Hopefully, Van Der Gugten will be back soon because we’re really missing him and Neser, we must have the weakest bowling attack in county cricket.

We would have been beaten by Northants if it wasn’t for the weather.
