I noticed that Labuschagne has hit form at last (for Australia)
He's a definite candidate - possibly needed a bit more pace to play international cricket, but there's no week in, week out county seamer over the last decade that I'd swap him for.
Pleased he's got himself a contract for the Hundred, but I think our already slim hopes of successfully defending the Royal London Cup have taken a big knock mind.
I was hoping to get to some of the one day cup games this season so shame Hogan wont be involved. Good on him but would have been nice for him to play for the nominally Welsh, Sophia Gardens based, side in the competition.
Cooke and Van Der Gugten return to the Glamorgan squad for their four day game with leaders Notts starting tomorrow - Prem Sisodiya also in the fourteen;-

wicket keeper captains dont half slow the game down , yesterday butler run to the bowler nearly every ball ,cost them a fielder outside the ring in the last over , i think a run loss would be better
Seems to be the modern way, ever increasing amounts of added time in football, one hour halves of rugby, T20 innings that go on for ever (with time outs in India to show more adverts) and rounds of golf taking four and five hours. To be fair, none of the above has put me off the sports involved apart from rugby which I think has got a serious problem in that its becoming a sport that only appeals to obsessives.
Another failure by David Lloyd, looked plumb LBW - out for six, Glamorgan 20-1 after being put in.
Australia on their way to an innings defeat in Sri Lanka.
117-7, Labuschagne top score so far with 32.
103-3 at lunch
180/5. Two quick wickets gone down. Need Cooke and Root to build from here.
Root out, 212-6. I suppose aim for 300 from here.
318 all out - strange innings, only Lloyd out of the ten dismissed batsmen failing to reach double figures, but only Northeast got to fifty.
another game to be introduced in august in the west indies is the sixty whatever nexttheres another being advertised now, the ultimate cricket challenge 2 inns of 15 balls looks like one man against another
Thought we had a sniff when harris took his third. Unfortunately Notts really look like kicking on now. Need some wickets very quickly.
