Glamorgan v Sussex - County Championship Div 2 - The promotion charge ends here?

[jakarta]

Well that is the season done & dusted, Davis out!

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Blimey. This current Sussex batting line-up is not the strongest but that middle order still had huge potential to deliver the runs needed for a decisive first innings lead.

Now it's down to Nashy and the lower order to get us up to something acceptable. The pitch seems to be doing plenty - even this morning when wickets did not fall there was a lot going past the edge and through the slips area. Fingers crossed that a lead of even 50 or so puts us in a decent position.

Top chuckles from our bat flids.

Reminds me of my kids team: in a match on Monday, there were six ducks, a one and a two. Thankfully Sussex had Gnasher to score a ton

Scores level.

Absolute gimps.

Another bonus point though. Every cloud...

Back to the baseball for us, Badger.

 

[Gwylan]

six wickets down for 26

Marvellous play, Sussex

No ball chaos for Sussex.
A day in the life of a martlet

 

[Simster]

Nash gone. We are going to have a "lead" of about ten runs when we were only 30 runs behind with 8 wickets left.

What a marvellous example of bat-flid fckwittery.

 

[Brovion]

Yay! The rot's over the descent has been stopped. Promotion is now nailed on as is the Div 1 championship next year. One day success will automatically follow. We're back!

None of that defeatist talk here Simster, we're simply the best! We bat from one to eleven and our bowling is SO strong that Jordan can't even get in the team! C'mon everybody, join in: "We're ****ing brilliant! We're ****ing brilliant!", C'mon I can't hear you!

(Thought I'd try a different approach ...)

Sorry everybody. I take FULL responsibility. It was a stupid idea.

 

[studio150]

Last 6 wickets lost for 26 runs.

 

[Simster]

Ten run lead with ONE wicket left. Lovely stuff.

 

[Taybha]

Boom Boom Goffin

 

[Luke93]

Very clever tactics of 'disguising' Briggs, the third highest run scorer, as a night-watchman.

 

[Taybha]

232-2 to 283 all out

 

[BensGrandad]

On a perfect day so probably a batting wicket if the weather is the same in Wales we should have got at least a 150 1st innings lead.

 

[Simster]

Glamorgan will be 50/0 by the close, and well on the way to a comfortable win.
