Re: GLAMMY

A rather familiar and depressing result.
Ok, Somerset are a strong team but I do worry if this will be a short but awful season once again.

Re: GLAMMY

Apart from Essex, Somerset have probably been the best red ball team in the country in recent years, so a thrashing was always on the cards, but I notice other Second Division sides are not doing badly against top Division teams in these games (Sussex comfortably beat Hampshire yesterday) and so you'd like to think that, as a team which didn't miss out on promotion by much last year, we can at least be competitive in some of our games - we weren't that for more than half a day against Somerset.

We did have Marnus for the best part though Bob, loving your optimism though

Re: GLAMMY

Worcs v Glam Starts today. Glammy will need to bat a lot better than they did against Somerset. TVG added to squad for the injured Smith. Worcs won their first game.

WICKET! ☝️

What a start! Hogan strikes in the first over!

Mitchell strangles it down the leg-side and Cooke takes the tumbling catch to remove the Worcestershire talisman for a duck ��

Worcs 0/1




There you go. Something to cheer.

Re: GLAMMY

Another wicket for Hogan, 31-2.

31-2 was also Pakistans contribution to the end of their innings in 2.4 overs this morning!

Re: GLAMMY

Worcester 210-3 - four and a half hours since the last message in this thread gives the hint that it's turning into a long day for Glamorgan!

Re: GLAMMY

Three wickets for Glamorgan this morning, trouble is, Worcester have got 418-6 - whatever happens though, Glamorgan will only be in the field for another six overs at most because teams can only bat for 120 overs at most in the first innings in this competition.

Re: GLAMMY

Worcs finish 455 for 8 at end of 120 overs - Glamorgan will have to bat well

Re: GLAMMY

After losing both openers quite cheaply, Glamorgan are going along quite nicely with Carlson (58) and Root (43) having put on over a hundred - 152-2.

Re: GLAMMY

Excellent fightback by Carlson and Root, still there at the close 181 for 2.
