Lunchtime maintenance 🏏

Glamorgan v Somerset. Lunch Day 1.

Somerset, batting first, are 104/1 after 32 overs.

James Rew, opening for Somerset, is the only batter to be dismissed – for 4 to Timm van der Gugten in the 3rd over.

Zain-ul-Hassan is bowling really well for Glamorgan. 6 overs including 4 maidens for 12 runs (8 of them in his 6th over as I’m writing this ☹️). So unlucky not to get a wicket yet 🏏

>Umpires have called for tea ahead of Hampshire’s 2nd innings

I’ve just made a number of cricket photos public in my Cricket album on Flickr.

Yes, they’re of dubious quality, usually quite distant, a little repetitive and need titles and descriptions adding but at least they’re some sort of record of matches attended 😄 🏏 📸

Unreasonably pleased with the performance of my Cricket Draft team in GW4 after a couple of dismal previous weeks. Still a lot of work to do – I’m even languishing near the bottom of my own league, Cow Corner 😆
