37/4. It's the hope that kills you.

Today’s effort will be later described as ‘disappointing’ by whoever is wheeled out for a reaction.
this is a pretty poor display from alleged professional sportsman. commentators are a right miserable lot
102/5, Cooke and Root, definitely doable, b100dy hate defeatists
Cooke looking good, got what looked like a questionable decision to me. Looked outside the line for lbw, and seemed to miss the bat. Bit of an either or appeal and the umpire gave it
And now it's over
dodgy umpire
Kellaway gone. 7 down. The end is nigh.
Dismal effort, not been following country cricket as much in recent years but has the Worcester wicket been problematic recently? Used to have a good track there
not really just poor batting, rolled over and given up
It’s been a pitch where it tends to be very hard to bat on the first morning, but, unlike Cardiff which can be similar before flattening out, Worcester’s pitch is a results one. If Worcestershire go up, they will have been helped by playing on a wicket which helps the bowler a lot more than the likes of Cardiff, Bristol and Derby. It looks like we let them score a hundred more than they should have on the first day.
Yes I think so (despite what I said about the Worcester wicket we scored over 300 to win there last season). It seems to me that pitches have changed a bit in recent years - whereas it used to be that they would gradually get worse and spinners would come into their own in the second innings, you often see wickets become slower and lower by the day now and they’re no use to any bowler on day four. There was a game at Derby this season where we managed to make them follow on, but their openers then batted throughout the final day without being parted.
Just when you think the game of cricket can't make itself any more ridiculous. The spectacle of the Worcestershire morons running around and bowling part time spinners with 9 down, just to get on track with over rate. I'd fine them for bringing the game into disrepute if it was up to me. Absolutely pathetic
dunno which team is more depressing to watch, Glammy or City?
I was just answering a question about the Worcestershire wicket and the fact is it’s an easier pitch to win, and lose, games on than Cardiff.
I agree that Root’s contribution makes the rest of the team look bad, but Worcestershire scored less than us in their second innings, so it was definitely an awkward wicket to bat on. I think our batting line up might be better than Worcestershire’s, but they had a much better bowling attack than us - our attack is weak with no spinners who would get into other sides purely on their bowling ability and our best bowler was injured for much of this game.
They had 2 days to get this total. No risk required whatsoever. It defies belief.
Glamorgan going all round the park against Yorkshire today. WithVan Der Gugten presumably missing the game with the injury he picked up last week, I’m struggling to think of too many weaker bowling attacks the county have fielded than the one for this game. Is someone had me back in April that Glamorgan would finish the season with McIlroy as their best bowler and most likely wicket taker, I would have looked at them with pity, but that’s what’s happened - Yorkshire 234-2.
19for2 in response to Yorkshire 500 all out.😩
Another limp end to a season. Can't Glammy get sponsored by Viagra.
Good effort from the batsmen today, especially Byrom and Northeast.
Another draw.
