Would be great if we can wrap this innings up in the afternoon session. Northants don't look to have much of a bowling lineup, so hopefully we can put up a big innings in reply. Think Lloyd needs to justify his place this game, I'd have much preferred to see wagg retain his place ahead of lloyd

I've been told by someone is at all Glamorgan's home games, and a fair few of their away ones, that Lloyd is a favourite of Maynard's - not sure he's a number four batsman though.

Maybe it's the north Wales connection. Agree that he's not convincing a no.4. personally i think wagg has done well enough with the bat over the last few years that he deserves a chance to stake a claim for a top 6 spot

Re: GLAMMY

Glamorgan 5-0 in reply to Northants 209 at the close on a weather affected first day.

I reckon Wagg definitely has the ability to be a top six batsman - perhaps the late stages of his career will see a transformation into a batting all rounder from a bowling one?

Re: GLAMMY

Another poor performance by Tom Cullen, told you all he was rubbish 😂😂😂

I think Wagg was left out because he's injured.

Career best 63 for Cullen, you were right all along - he's obviously rubbish 😂🤣.
Root now on 212 not out whilst his brother hit a ton v Pakistan.

Re: GLAMMY

452-9 at the close of play, Root out for 229. Also, Glamorgan have signed Mitchell Marsh as their second overseas player for the T20.

Re: GLAMMY

I think of myself as a real fan of the four day Championship game, but, even I struggle to find anything positive to say about the days play at Edgbaston yesterday where Warwickshire batted all day to score just one hundred and eighty one runs off ninety three overs. The fact that they only lost three wickets (one of them a run out) in doing so, suggests that it was a good pitch, but Dominic Sibley, who batted all day (three hundred and sixty five minutes) and faced two hundred and sixty four balls in scoring eighty one not out appears to think it's a minefield!

The longer version of the county game appeals to the nerd in me and, in it's way, that was a fascinating example of the oddities it can come up with.

Re: GLAMMY

Hogan and van de gugten putting the boot in now. 3 sizes between them. hopefully we can get a few wickets before the rain comes today
