Reply With QuoteThey did poorly in the first innings for that many batsmen to have got in and none of them made a decent score until the tail. Probably would still hav been drawn, but you never know what a bit if scoreboard pressure could have done

Match drawn, Glamorgan finishing up on 184-2 on another poor home pitch where the balance between bat and ball was way too much in favour of the former.

So a tame draw as expected. Sad news that Jack Murphy has had to retire before his career had really gotten going.
Glamorgan lost their first eight wickets for 217 which looked a decent score to me in what would nine times out of ten have been bowler friendly conditions. After that though, nine wickets fell for 959 runs in the last two and a half days - I reckon the only way there would have been a positive result is if both sides were willing to declare in all of the first three innings of the game and sides just don't do that these days.Originally Posted by Rjk
Yep.
Still in second place -

Decent fightback.by Glamorgan today after Gloucester scored 168-1 after being put in yesterday. They were all out for 313 with three wickets each for Hogan and Wagg and Glamorgan are 35-0 in reply.
Turning into a fantastic day. Glam 145/1 now. In the Sussex and Durham game eckersley and Bancroft have taken Durham from 90/5 to 248/5. Wins for us and Durham would be huge for our promotion chances
187-4 after losing Root to the last ball of the day - pretty even after the loss of a few late wickets. Hardly surprisingly, the ball swung a lot more today and I think this will have to continue for the next couple of days if we are not to see another draw.
Hopefully we can get a lead of 50+ , and
then bowl them out cheaply second time around. With the way Labuschange and the tail have been batting this year there's always the possibility of a massive lead I suppose.
They couldn't could they.................
153-8 - getting interesting.
It certainly is. 2 more quick ones now. de Lange currently bowling - no wickets this innings after only 1 in forst. Surely he's due........
Game on. 188 to win. Min 49 overs. 2 or 3 solid partnerships..................
c'mon glammy!!!
6-1. Selman gone for 6.
23-1. Come on..........
71-2. Twitchy bum time but Labs still in 45 not out.............
Lloyd fails again. Very good team this year. In danger of being hamstrung by the coach and his useless captain.
3 down. 103 runs should be doable with 7 wickets in hand, but a few quick ones and it's very much squeaky bum time.
It's a very good CC this summer. There's a lot of talent.
Very true. looking through the scorecards there are some cracking players in division 2 this season.
15 to get.
Make that 10!
YYYEEESSSS!!! We are top of the league
Won by 4 wickets and back to the top of the table.
With 7 wanted, Owen Morgan hit his first ball for 6!
