GLAMMY

[chrisp_1927]

Three quick wickets right at the end of the day helped Glamorgan back into a game which looked like getting away from them, but we need to get the last five wickets pretty quickly and then show a lot more application with the bat than we did last time out if we’re to avoid defeat against a team that has had a big boost in confidence from their new coaching appointment.

It's a tough one to judge . When they were 276 for 2 we were certainly looking very much in trouble. Their last game at home saw a score of 505-8 declared for Derbyshire, followed by Essex 174 all out and then a massive 513/3 declared. So their could well be an argument that in the context of the pitch , those late 3 wickets make it an absolutely fantastic day for Glamorgan and put us right in the box seat. Hopefully a fired up Hogan and Neser can do a bit more damage early this morning.

Strange old score in that Sussex combined innings against Derbyshire. Makes me wonder what the highest score posted after a follow on in first class cricket is.

Derbyshire could be a dark horse shout for promotion this season. Feels a fairly strong second division at the moment.

Hopefully we can get them out in the morning session and see how we go on this track.

Not sure if it is the record, but, coincidentally, this year is the centenary of a remarkable county championship which saw Hampshire bowled out for just 15 in reply to Warwickshire’s 223. Hampshire then piled up 521 when asked to follow up and a shell shocked Warwickshire were then dismissed for 158 to lose by 155 runs - Hampshire’s 15 is the lowest ever score by a winning team in a game.

Derbyshire 360-8 at lunch, just the two bowling bonus points, but only three batting points for Derby.

[chrisp_1927]

I'd have taken that at start of play. 3 wickets for 80 runs . Bowlers definitely deserve credit for keeping the run rate at bay, as evidenced by Derbyshire only picking up the 3 bonus points as bob mentions.

Nice to see du plooy gone. He can give it a good smack , so would have been quite dangerous as wickets fell at other end. Would be nice to wrap up these last 2 wickets quickly and then put up a nice quick 400+ score.

The first bit done, Derbyshire 368 all out, which is very good from 276-2 - can’t help thinking the second part will be more difficult.

Made a good start, but still a long way to go. Got a good feeling about this game mind

He's absolutely flying now. His score seems to have jumped up by 4 everytime I refresh the page. Really hope Salter gets himself a good score aswell.

[chrisp_1927]

What a daft run out.

Ah f@ck bloody glammy, everytime things look positive, we always find a way ! On the plus side, with Lloyd and Marnus out there Derby will be lucky to keep us below 6 runs an over

I do sometimes question if getting positive about Glamorgan is the very epitome of sheer lunacy.

Good positive batting though.

[poc]

nice 100 from labuschange

[Kind of Blue]

Nice ‘un Marnus! Decent partnership that and solid 20 runs from TvG as the night watchman.

[Park Life]

nice 100 from labuschange

Agreed, hopefully he can carry on and help Glamorgan get a big lead
Van der Gugten just out for 20

[the other bob wilson]

I start watching and Cooke is out of the second ball I see - it’s amazing a wicket falls straight away so often
to the team I’m supporting, but never to the other lot!

[Elwood Blues]

The late David Shepherd ex Gloucester player and well known 1st class umpire would be frantically hopping on one leg now.

Labushagne is on 111 and Glamorgan are 333.

Shepherd was superstitious and always hopped on one leg when a player was on Nelson or 111

[Pearcey3]

Cullen and Nser can both bat do hopefully we can get reach 450 and apply pressure on Derbyshire in the final session of the day.
