Glamorgan 268 all out

7-0 doubt there be any more play today very dark and big storm luming

kruger came good a bit anyway. Hope Maunders isn't out for the whole match - he coudn't open the innings.

Lunch @ 88/5

Don't know if Maunders will bat or not.

RL saying it is very doubtful Maunders will bat or bowl

 

[CM]

We've avoided the follow on now.

While these two are at the crease theres always a chance we can put something on the board.

 

[CM]

200 run partnership, just what the doctor ordered

Ackerman 149*, Nixon 100*, still only lead by 30 though.

 

[Jeff]

Ackerman's out now, you jinxed him.

To be fair, you ARE playing Glamorgan so if you dont win, there's something seriously wrong

Have faith BB, I'm sure the players are meeting as we speak, discussing the best ways they can squander this lead :icon_razz

It wouldnt take them long to work a plan out

Well full credit to the team and new skipper Nixon. We couldn't finish it off tonight but the 17 runs should be easily achieved tomorrow

At 88/5 we looked like we were in a hole but hundreds from Ackerman, Nixon and Mansoor put us in the driving seat.

Masters bowled well as per, in Kruger it looks like we've finally got an overseas bowler who can take wickets too.

I know Glamorgan were bottom but still it feels good to finally win a game
