Another awful day at Sussex. I see their tail end batsmen are hitting us all over the place. Something we have suffered with most of this season.
Sussex already have a commanding lead and look poised for an innings win but Hudson P (batting 8) looks like he may be heading for another big innings

Glamorgan making a better fist of it in their second innings even if they’re still 240 behind - 118-1 with debutante Ul Hassan 40 not out.
Important to make this difficult for Sussex, and not completely lose the momentum of a decent start to the season.Originally Posted by the other bob wilson
could be all over by lunch
223-3 at lunch, still 135 to get for Sussex to have to bat again, but, after losing two wickets in two balls early on, Labuschagne and Carlson have put on exactly a hundred.
Definitely showing fight if nothing else.
271/3 but still 87 behind. With 5 sessions still left we need over 600 to have any chance of not losing? Even then that's probably not enough with a 1st innings deficit of 350!
Like so many pitches these days, it looks like the first morning was the best time to bowl on it, you don’t tend to get the wear and tear on pitches these days which used to see spinners coming into their own on the last day.
Glamorgan shown as 307-5 on Twitter, but it’s actually 310-3 with Carlson having reached his third hundred of the season,
369-3, Glamorgan 11 in front - Labuschagne past a hundred as well.
Unbelievable partnership from Carlson and Labuschagne. Still work to do, but brilliant so far
499-5 at the close, a lead of 141-5,Carlson 187 not out.
Fantastic response from Glamorgan even if we go onto lose which is likely tomorrow.
Over by lunch my foot!
As everyone else said we will still probably lose and Sussex still big favourites but fantastic to see this from carlson.
We still need another 200 runs or so not to lose I'd say.
Yep agree with the above. We need to bat for at least 1.5 sessions to make the game safe. Not impossible but plenty of batting still to do.
Paid my first ever visit to Hove yesterday. Plenty of other Glammy supporters among a decent Saturday crowd. Extraordinary effort to get to 499 for 5 by close but, as others have said, still a lot of work to do to get to safety. Sussex seemed to play as though the game had got away from them for a large part of the day, although that was far from true.
Back watching the stream today. Carlson and Cook gone and the lead is up to 222, which would be around 3 an over to chase. Still think they need to bat at least half an hour after lunch.
Nick Webb on commentary has just pointed out it is now Glamorgan's best 2nd innings ever.
581/7
Yes would be astonishing to score over 600 and our highest ever 2nd innings total and still lose! Lots of work left to do though as you say as it's only 3 an over required currently.
My first visit also and what a day it was! Labuschagne and Carlson were outstanding. As well as the Glammy fans I noticed there were quite a few Aussies. I see we got to lunch with still a bit of the tail to wag. A bit more to do but looks more promising than could imagined after the first two days. Only sorry that Carlson didn't get a double hundred.
Wonderful that there are so many true Glammy supporters on here.
The greatest sport.
Great for those who were there to watch yesterday.
Neser past 50 again, but Van Der Gugten’s just gone - 623-8 , the lead’s 265.
689-9, hope Neser gets a well deserved hundred, he’s currently on 90.
335 in front. 1 wicket left. Could be a 1 day style chase?
No, 703-9, Neser goes to hundred with a four then a six off Steve Smith.
well done neser quick drink then bowl them out
I'm starting to think the win is slipping away. If only they'd declared a few overs before tea it might have been on. Oh well....
