Sussex dominates after Glamorgan’s struggles on Day 1

Despite Kiran Carlson’s determined effort, Glamorgan struggled to build substantial partnerships. Carlson played a resilient knock, scoring 56 off 81 balls, which included eight well-timed boundaries. His innings was a bright spot in an otherwise shaky performance by Glamorgan’s top and middle order.

In response, Sussex made a strong start to their innings, reaching 121/1 at the close of play on Day 1. Opener Daniel Hughes anchored the innings, remaining unbeaten with a composed 70 off 118 balls, including 12 fours. His steady knock has placed Sussex in a solid position, trailing by just 63 runs with nine wickets in hand.

As the match heads into Day 2, Sussex will look to capitalize on their strong start and potentially build a significant lead. Glamorgan, on the other hand, will need early wickets to stay competitive in this crucial County Championship clash.
