Sky showed Labuschagne's catch during their coverage of Hampshire v Sussex the next night. The commentators were saying it was extraordinary. Charles Dagnall followed it up by saying it was a great game of cricket (which it was, to be fair) but Nick Knight over-egged the pudding a bit by saying Shaw hitting the last ball for six was 'brilliant'. Not the adjective I'd have used but having seen City's wins over Ipswich and Southampton this year I guess I was owed a nightmare finish like that.
Glamorgan back in action against Northants in the Championship today. No Ingram.
Kids go free today (adults half price). I'm not sure what Maurice would make of it being called the Glam Fam day but there you go.

Promising start. I’ll take anything right now.
strange they opted to bat first
His monocle came clean out of his eye.
Nothants 279 all out Glam 36-0 close of play
Good first 4 sessions so far. If we play well in the afternoon session today we should be in a very good position
390 for 8 lead by 111 at close of play
Good, consistent days batting by Glamorgan against a very inexperienced attack on a pitch that is still doing a bit. As someone who is always criticising the pitches at Cardiff, I’ve got to say that, despite the disappointing outcome, the Middlesex pitch was a very good one, we’ll need a big lead if this wicket is like the one for the last four day match played here.
Huge credit to van Der gugten. Been really injury hit over the last few years, to the extent I wondered if he'd be any use when he did come back. But he seems to have actually really improved his game. I think his batting is good enough for him to be considered a genuine all rounder and his bowling is better than ever. Just hope he manages to stay fit for a stretch now.
My youngest (who's got no interest in cricket) randomly met up with him once as part of a group in a pub, he was impressed. Said he came across as a really good bloke. A few years ago now but he still remembers him.
I agree with you, I hope Timm can stay fit and enjoys a successful and lengthy end to his career, for himself and for Glamorgan. I'll make out he's a close friend of the family if he does.
Van Der Gugten’s been playing for us for eight years and I’d say he’s a strong contender to be our best signing in that time. His batting has come on a lot in recent seasons, but I’d say he’s a place too high at seven.
By contrast, Gorvin, who was originally selected as an all rounder by Glamorgan is batting at eleven in this game- Northants may have looked at our team for this game and thought our tail starts at seven, but you could say that there aren’t many better number elevens in county cricket than Gorvin.
As he is proving
490 all out, Harris 40, Crane 56 and Gorvin 26 - quite a bit more than I was expecting, but has it become a typical Cardiff wicket and are Northants going to bat for the next five sessions?
This is a shame, northants approaching 200/2. On the positive side, they still haven't caught our score and a flurry of wickets is always possible. Shame to see this look like fizzling to a draw though
Crane took two wickets in two balls before Northants cleared the deficit, but they were able to reach 235-4 by the close.
i missed who and where, somebody just hit 43 off an over it was 8 balls
Louis Kimber of Leicestershire did it to Sussex and Englands Ollie Robinson.
All very sleepy at Cardiff, no wickets today yet for Glamorgan.
If we cant get a win from positions like this I dont know when we will.
chers tobw hes now 191 not out, amazing for a no8 our game looks more like a draw now
What a surprise! 😳
263 to win. Would be nice to see root and byrom give us a quick start. Big total, but not completely undoable with a session and a half
Credit to Northants. They could have batted on.
Yeah definitely. The way that McManus was going I thought they'd go at least 300 before declaring. If I remember rightly I'm sure northants beat us after we declared about 3/4 years ago. Would be nice to return the favour today
