GLAMMY

Re: GLAMMY

Been watching the live stream over the past half an hour and very enjoyable too. Northants at 223/3 would have been looking at 400 but collapsed to 281 all out with Van Der Gugten taking 5/45. Khawaja’s catch for the 9th wicket was a bit special. They need to bat through the final seven overs of the day without losing a wicket

Re: GLAMMY

Another hundred for Khawaja, but no one else could get to thirty as Glamorgan concede a lead of twenty seven - it needed a partnership of thirty eight for the last wicket to get us as close as that.

Khawaja is a one man batting team!

It looks like we are going bottom with Northants 166/0 in their second innings and well on top. I think the decision to play so many youngsters is set in place for the season. Unless things improve seasoned County cricketers need to be signed for 2019.

The last two four day games had me thinking that things were looking up a bit, but, in the first two days of this game, Glamorgan have looked what they were in the early games this season - the worst side in the competition.

That said, there's been a good fightback this morning with Northants now 252-5 - can't help thinking that, with a lead of 279, they've probably got enough to win already.

Re: GLAMMY

Certain defeat tomorrow and with that bottom place. Wanting 434 to win Glammy are 111/3 with our only hope Khawaja out for 38.

You can excuse Khawaja after the start he has made for us and I think Carlson has got something about him, but it really has been a typical Glamorgan batting performance in this game so far, with so many batsmen getting in and then giving it away before they reach thirty. Selman and Murphy have given us decent starts and seem to be able to blunt opposing attacks for a while, but I make it that they have one Championship fifty between the two of them so far, while the likes of Morgan are just not producing the figures that someone batting as high in the order as he is should be doing and, as for the current situation with the talented Aneurin Donald, it reflects very poorly on all parties involved.

Radio Wales commentators said that we Glamorgan's best ever T20 win (by 63 runs).

Re: GLAMMY

Encouraging. Going to the game on Sunday. More of the same please

Re: GLAMMY

There's barely any competition, but that has to be Glamorgan's best win of the season. I still think that all of the cricket we've played before yesterday was just a warm up for what, pretty obviously, is the priority this year - in essence, Glamorgan's season lasts from 6 July to 17 August when we entertain Surrey in our last T20 group game, with the hope that there'll be an encore for Finals day on 15 September.

Agreed. I don’t like it at all. The one positive is that the weather is good so hopefully we will see some decent crowds at Sophia Gardens over the next few weeks and the club will bring in some much needed funds. In turn that might increase the chances of bringing senior players to the club next season.
