Oh God, I thought it was just football fans that are raving how great things are one minute then moaning the next🤦‍♂️, but no, it’s just modern social media driven society🙄 Let’s have some balance - it’s obviously a good track and they’re not going to just give their wickets away. Look how many runs we added after losing our 5th wicket. We have to be patient and keep chipping away. Yep, chipping away on a flat track with a bowler down. I didn't see much of it but what I did see was the spinners bowling tight. Regarding Salt, I think Salisbury said Thomason would have opened regardless, so that's where the Salt down the order thing is coming from. Many on here have thought that for years of course, and we tend to know best. With that, I get the Brown criticism but for me the issue is that he's the keeper. It amazes me that pro cricket people think it's okay to have a keeper as captain. They're natural generals and have enough to do already, frankly. It's a batsman's job because he's the only one who doesn't already have a specific job in the field. We have plenty of other options as far as I can see. S&F, are you saying we picked Garton with a heel injury? Great start, it's Robbo obviously. |

So, what's going to happen today? One hour gone and just one wicket albeit a highly important one. If Glamorgan bat for another hour after lunch, it will be a tough old run chase. Maybe, Carson can take out nine, ten, jack like he did in the first innings.

Glamorgan will bat until tea and it will end in a draw as with the exception of Robinson our bowling attack is toothless.

I suppose we are hoping that Ollie Robinson can take two or three quick wickets after lunch otherwise this ship may have sailed.

Thanks for that. The live stream is working on the Glamorgan site, but not via the Sussex link. Beware! glamorgancricket.com/glamorgan-sussex-150421/live-streamedit: The Ollie show continues before he disappears off to England. Although, one LBW rule for him and not for Garton? Glamorgan: 150-7WOW! Ollie on a hat trick. What a turn-a-round!! Now, record 18th LBW in a county championship match. Amazing! Finish it off Ollie. Glamorgan 152-9. All over: Ollie takes 9-78 and prepares for the England bus. Sussex require 154 for victory. |

We must be the only county with one wicket taking bowler. What happens if Robinson gets called up by England?

Ollie takes his eighth wicket. Nine down. Hopes rising.

Hats off to Robinson. 9 wickets. A tricky run chase of 154. Don't let it hit your pads as LBWs randomly given.
Come on Sussex.
