🏏🔗 The loneliness of the English spinner: Mason Crane bemoans a world of survival

> The Glamorgan leg-spinner, who played a single Test at the end of the 2017/18 Ashes, says we always favour the seamers in this country

All’s well … sort of … the match ended in a draw although at on point CricViz switched to giving Glamorgan a 40% victory chance. Interesting, could have gone either way 🤔

Glamorgan **302** (Ingram 103) and **218-5 dec** (Ingram 75, Carlson 53; Bess 4-87)

Yorkshire **226** (Revis 50; Crane 5-55) and **239-7** (Lyth 97; Hadley 3-35, Crane 3-99)

🔗 Glamorgan and Yorkshire play out pendulum-swinging draw

Tea Day 4. Yorkshire trail by 169 but have only lost 1 wicket. CricViz giving a 81% chance of a draw, 19% of a Yorkshire win 🏏

Getting a little worried that Glamorgan declared too early. Yorkshire scoring quite quickly 😬

Match is heading for a draw



On Saturday, Day 2 of the Glamorgan v Yorkshire match, I took an old digital camera (Olympus SZ-14) with me to the ground. The 24x optical zoom lens did give some slightly sharper and closer-up photos than my phone could provide. As a quick test of the camera I quite liked the some of the results.

As it stands before play starts today Glamorgan are 302ao and 111/3 after 45 overs of their 2nd innings. Yorkshire scored 226ao in their 1st innings.

According to the BBC, Crane five-for gives Glamorgan edge against Yorkshire. We’ll have to see!
