Re: GLAMMY

Cracking effort by Glamorgan. Some great batting performances. Also really nice to see Hogan being as effective against one of the 'better' sides as he is in division 2.

Really hoping we can somehow get our way into the top 2 in this first group. With the addition of Marnus and Neser from game 5 there's every chance we could realistically have a crack at winning the tournament.

My understanding is we could win the group and still go out - I'm sure the two group winners with the best record go straight into the Final.

I agree about our performance - apart from when we were reduced to 130 odd for 7 in the first innings, we bossed the game throughout when my reaction when I saw we were starting our season at Headingley was that we'd do well to take the game into a fourth day.

Re: GLAMMY

Yep,you’re right Paul.Seems a little negative really.

I heard another discussion on this since I first posted about - apparently, they agreed on eight points because, with so many games being played late last season, they thought there might be quite a few games badly affected by the weather, so they didn't want some teams effectively penalised through no fault of their own.

I thought it changes halfway, so the top 2 from each group then make the top group of 6. The top 2 from the top group then play the final. It did all seem slightly convoluted mind

The weather's set fair for all four days as well looking at the forecast, but I said something like that shortly before the snow arrived in Leeds

Re: GLAMMY

Very good recovery by carlson and David Lloyd. Nice to see Lloyd at the top of the order and given freedom.

He's been a very good one day opener for us, and a very very poor championship middle order batsman. Opening the innings and allowing him to play his shots seems to be how you get the best out of him.
Good supporting performance from Carlson aswell. 120/3 at lunch, after being 23/3 early on

Re: GLAMMY

The commentator was saying that Glamorgan's early batsmen missed straight balls when they were out and it looked a bit like that to me - we've lost three, four and three wickets before we've reached 35 in our three innings so far, but it's encouraging to see that we've fought back each time whereas we'd have been looking at no more than 200 from a situation like those before.

Re: GLAMMY

Yes, a decent recovery especially, as you say, normally we would all be fearing the worst after three cheap wickets. Need to kick on from here now and post 300+.

Someone stay with Carson ffs

Decent partnership developing now with Douthwaite.
Carlson just got his ton after leading a charmed life in the 90's, dropped at slip then Sussex keeper missed a stumping.

239/6 at tea.

Re: GLAMMY

There’s a debate going on in the commentary box whether it was a catch or not - it looked like one to me. Also, they don’t think it was a stumping chance.
