I never realised their spin bowler was Mike Atherton's son.Sam Northeast's 335* topples Gooch as Lord's highest first-class innings
Glamorgan captain makes earliest triple-century in county history, but Middlesex dig in in reply
Yes that was a shock, I'm guessing Athers has divorced and his son has taken his mother's maiden name or perhaps they never got marriedI never realised their spin bowler was Mike Atherton's son.
Nice way to celebrate our 100th first class match against Middlesex by sticking a Glamorgan player on their records board.
This wicket is a batsman's paradise, but Neser is a massive loss. Especially as he seems to be turning into a tidy all rounder.Glamorgan ain't gonna be bowling any side out anytime soon unless the wicket is a cabbage patch
. This is the first time since 1978 that Glammy have opened with 2 left arm bowlers, and the first time in their history they've opened with 2 left handed opening batsmen and bowlers..
I'm guessing Alan Lewis Jones and Hugh MorrisThis wicket is a batsman's paradise, but Neser is a massive loss. Especially as he seems to be turning into a tidy all rounder.
A bit of further useless info
Right Lon you've got me thinking about the bowlers in 78, I'm going for Malcolm Nash as one (not sure if he opened the bowling)...This wicket is a batsman's paradise, but Neser is a massive loss. Especially as he seems to be turning into a tidy all rounder.

Nash and Alan Wilkins.
I was thinking Alan Wilkins but thought he was more first change!
In a couple of matches that season we had 3 left arm opening bowlers - Nash, Wilkins and Andy Mack.I was thinking Alan Wilkins but thought he was more first change!
Bloody hell Andy Mack! Fair play Lone that's hell of a memory you have!!
And there it is.
