Re: GLAMMY

Slow session with the Kookaburra ball doing neither side any favours. Glamorgan 76 runs in front on 456-6.

Fair to say that Gloucestershire dealt with that difficult last period pretty well. Reminiscent of Barwick and Lefevbre bowling together years ago 😊

Re: GLAMMY

A day where you can understand why there are people who don’t get cricket. The Glamorgan innings meandered along after lunch in the face of negative tactics by Gloucestershire and they showed no desire to for the batting bonus point at 400 which should have been well within their reach. You’ve only got to look at the scores elsewhere to see that playing with Kookaburra ball in conditions which are a long way removed from what England will face in Australia is doing nobody any good.
Maybe, I’ll end up looking a fool tomorrow, but it looks like a banker draw to me with the consolation being that Leicestershire have lost already and Derbyshire are still second best in their game.

I was there yesterday and as a county cricket lover the best part of the day was lunch and a few beers in the old Mochyn-Du.

Agree. I didn't understand why they didn't kick on to get the 4th batting bonus point. Really odd. Looks like a nailed on draw.

It was as if they thought denying Gloucestershire a bowling point was more important than getting an extra point themselves and in the end, they did neither - generally speaking a sport is in trouble when you get captains making decisions like that.

Re: GLAMMY

I can’t understand what they were trying to achieve yesterday apart from sending home a bored group of spectators. Perhaps they wanted to put Gloucestershire out of the game but there was more attractive ways of doing that than crawling around getting nowhere.

Re: GLAMMY

whatever it was they achieved nothing, was an awful session to watch

Re: GLAMMY

good start so far 49-2

[the other bob wilson]

Re: GLAMMY

80-2, Crane absent with an injury which I hope wasn’t sustained when pointlessly batting at the end of our innings.

Re: GLAMMY

212-6, 5 wickets for Kellaway. The injury to Crane could be crucial.

Re: GLAMMY

Match drawn, good effort by Glamorgan and a great effort by Kellaway to take six of the seven wickets.
