93-4 now and it’s raining.
horrible weather up here.
tough conditions for cricket.
203-7 with Ingram still in, not a bad effort after that horror start.
Decent fightback. Northants set some very attacking fields. Need to bat for another session tomorrow.
Yeah, a Great recovery yesterday after that start. Hoping for 250/300 today. Fair play to whoever is in charge of recruitment, we've managed to get ourselves some very useful loan players. Nice to see someone who is proactive and obviously has a decent relationship with other counties. A real improvement
Absolutely flying along this morning, going along at a T20 rate.
Bugger, Ingram out as I post
Awful umpiring this morning as Vascancelos was clearly lbw. now the fecker on 175 odd
Glammy still 230 behind with 7 wickets left. Likely to lose tomorrow if weather holds?
What I found really strange was that one of those 2 results came at Lords. The absolute road turned into a pitch where 246 played 159 in the first innings.
I always used to quite enjoy the low scoring early season games. Seems like the ECB got their arse in their hand to such an extent over the likes of Darren Stevens taking wickets, that they've mandated flat pitches and a stupid ball.
Glamorgan return to action today with a game against Yorkshire at Headingley - Ed Byron is fit again after missing our first three games, still no sign of Timm Van Der Gugten though.
Also, commiserations to the friends and family of Worcestershire's Josh Baker (best known I suppose for being hit for thirty four in an over by Ben Stokes a couple of years ago), a very promising spin bowler and hard hitting batsman who died this week a day after he had been taking wickets for Worcestershire's seconds - he was only twenty.
RIP.
Glamorgan 93-2 on a pitch which is turning, but then the same thing was happening on the first day against Derbyshire and that one flattened out.
Further to my comment about the wicket, it seems it’s going to deteriorate

Didn’t realise they’d played the extra half an hour which definitely didn’t work in Glamorgan’s favour.
Very tough first day. But we did win the toss. Shame billy got out then.
This trip up there has turned into one of them…….
Good from these 2. Giving us a fighting chance of a draw. Looks like there could be rain from around 3 pm tomorrow aswell. The way Ingram and Hamza are playing, I bloody well hope that we see Ingram and Marnus lining up together. This Hamza looks an absolute donkey(hope he proves me wrong), Ingram has been fantastic.
I'd be asking the groundstaff at Sophia gardens to do everything they can to produce a turning pitch. Harris gets decent movement on grippy pitches, get prem in the side along with crane. Because this pace attack is toothless
73 in front with 3 wickets left. Could be close finish.......
Bit of a famine or feast season for Northeast at the moment.
