Glamorgan (A) 2025

I'd go with Walter to open, he hits in the air and often gets caught but at least the first 6 overs  he may lift it over the inner field . Plus he is better against pace than spin.
The bigger problem is the bowling. If Silverwood has any guile, he would  announce that Amir has an injury ( to save face) and "rest him".

Battle for the wooden spoon on Sunday.

You may well be right but we did get 15 points last year and lost to Hampshire away, Somerset at home and Glamorgan away last year.

I?m not sure what that would do?  There?s no one better.  He?s past his best but his figures in his last few tournaments have been pretty good.  The other overseas player we have is no better.  He bowls in theory, the far easier overs, rarely takes wickets and for some unfathomal reason bats ahead of Snater every game.

It will be interesting to note, what the attendance looks like. The last home game, at Fortress Essex, was hardly jammed packed.

The above description of the ground, is used as it is guaranteed to get a laugh. The same as at, one time, just mentioning Nicholas Parson or Margaret Thatcher in a Pantomime.

 Do not want to drag this form into red ball, so five games to get an improvement.

One thing worth mentioning from last night's game is something I've never seen before: a bowler switching from right-arm to left-arm mid-over. Ben Kellaway began an over bowling right arm offspin at Pepper, who hit him for successive sixes. Kellaway then goes round the wicket and bowls slow left arm. Pepper blocks the first ball and is out caught off the next.

I've seen players that can throw with either arm but have never previously seen a bowler do this, must be extremely rare.

Essex have something fairly similar;
Batsmen who can?t bat left or right handed and bowlers who can?t ball left or right arm.
