Quite a big total to chase albeit a small ground but at no point did this score not look achievable. Excellent start for once.

Quite a big total to chase albeit a small ground but at no point did this score not look achievable. Excellent start for once.
Good win this lunchtime for the Welsh Fire Women’s team as they chased down a big total to win with five balls to spare, Hayley Matthews the match winner with an unbeaten 70 odd.
More feeble batting by Welsh Fire’s Men’s team (they couldn’t even score at a run a ball) left their bowlers with too much to do as they go down by three wickets.
Looks like Glamorgan will be chasing a bigger total than Wednesday - Sussex 86-1 off 20 overs.
Struggling now though 107-5, bit of a collapse after a decent start
157-7 with plenty of overs left, much depending on Billy Root..
Root out for 48, 20 to get with two wickets left.
Van Der Gugten out with 14 needed, think Sussex are favourites now.
Well played Jamie Mc
Exciting finish , well done to McIlroy and Gorvin for playing very sensibly right at the end
Great finish. Game that ebbed and flowed a few times. Thought we bowled well at them. They were always lagging behind after our few consecutive maidens at the start, then just as they had put together a decent partnership we took those quick wickets
Thought we were cruising towards the total, but they bowled really well. Think Bevan needs to look back at his innings mind, when you don't respect the game it has a nasty habit of biting you, tom needs to learn that i'd suggest.
Thought Byrom was on for another 100, only batsman on either side who made that pitch look easy.
Nail biting finish, but what fun they are when you win!
4 from 4, bloody fantastic
Much could be made out of this but Surrey for example (although maybe an extreme one) still had Sibley, Burns, and Foakes at their disposal.
Weather just about held and had a very enjoyable day at the Gnoll with the crowd being treated to a lower scoring thriller. Batting looked easier at the start of both innings until it suddenly didn’t and scoring looked harder work for both teams as it went on. Root looked particularly gutted to get out as he did, think a potential fifty and starting to get set to bring the game home probably why.
Great start to the competition. Shame this format has been treated as it has been by the ECB as it’s a pleasant way to spend a day.
Welsh Fire women go top of the table with a six wicket win at Trent Rockets, a calm and impressive run chase on a turning wicket after the three big guns at the top of the order didn’t fire.
Welsh Fire men clawed their way back into the game for an unlikely win, helped by some kamekazi running and batting by the Rockets.
Essex 150-7 chasing Glamorgan’s 283 with 18 overs to go. - strange looking Glamorgan team, they must have a few injuries.
