Easier said than done, but more key performances with the bat have come in the first innings of matches this season.
Whereas Glamorgan have proved adept in the past at getting out of trouble, this year they have avoided getting into it in the first place. That is, after the first three games, when they were shot out quickly on two occasions and forced to follow on in the other, leaving it looking like a long season ahead.
There may have been the odd long day with the ball for Glamorgan supporters to endure, but thankfully there have not been short days with the bat for the bulk of the season.
Colin Ingram, Kiran Carlson and Sam Northeast have been consistent in the top order and provided the platform for success. Their contributions, together with Chris Cooke holding the lower half together, have been as invaluable as ever.
