...very wooden for a professional sportsman.
Lancs 152/8. Everyone making a start except Jennings (3).
Crawley gone. 18/2
...Lancs 164-9. Hopefully a low scoring game.
He just doesn't "look right" to me. I know that sounds harsh, but I can't have him at all I'm afraid.

Good partnership at the end. Great innings from Conway and Robinson and Wood did well this morning.
Sussex ended on 267-5 with a good century from Ben Brown.
Hoping both teams push on tomorrow

Glamorgan 150 all out - daft run out to 2nd ball of the day.
Lancs 27-0 with Davies on 24 playing shots at every ball.
Yesterday was a weird day. Uneven bounce seemed to be the biggest problem with the pitch with some from Mahmoud shooting along the ground while the gentle medium of David Lloyd got one to leap up at Livingstone's throat.
Lancs seemed to change tactics once Vilas and Livingstone perished to successive balls, with the likes of Wood and Bailey playing lots of shots with the result they doubled the score before Lancs were all out. Glamorgan followed the same strategy, with 38 runs off the first 7 overs, but then wickets began to tumble. Labuschagne played well for 44 before Lamb trapped him lbw.
Some talk that the pitch will flatten out and batting will get easier, but I thought the batting overall was poor from both sides yesterday.

...Davies unfortunately out last ball before lunch. Lancs 88-3, a lead of 111 so in a decent position, just hope that dismissal doesn’t give Glamorgan some impetus.

He wasn't exactly playing for lunch was he ?
...no, quite aggressive. might be the way to go.
3 Wickets falling immediately after lunch. I feared the Davies dismissal might give them momentum. Lancs will want a lead of at least 200.

....major collapse from Lancs, 88-2 just before lunch to 124-8 30mins after.
8 down in only 34 overs batted... Poor.
Come on lancs, try and get to around 200 ahead to make a game of it.
