Ingram and Carlson’s Glamorgan record stand punishes Sussex

Glamorgan batter Colin Ingram told BBC Sport Wales:

“They came at us with the new ball and put us under pressure, but I really enjoyed the partnership with Kiran as we tried to counter while the ball was still hard, we got a few away and things started to flow.

“I’ve really enjoyed (the season), I was going to do the first bit and then Marnus pitches up, so I knew it was a limited opportunity, but the move to number five has been really good for me as well, having to play more responsibly.

“We want a team looking to win games, so if I’m needed for that then great, but if there’s another combination (of overseas players) the team are looking at then that’s fine as well. (Selection) is part of the game, I want us to do well and that’s my main concern.”

Sussex bowler Jayden Seales told BBC Sussex Sport:

“My rhythm felt really good this morning but in the middle it went, I was frustrated with myself, but I’m still pleased to get five and put the team in a good position.

“Colin Ingram is a great batsman all round the world so it’s not easy coming up against someone like him, it was a great challenge for me as he and Carlson played very well.

“I’m hoping the West Indies selectors will see this and I’ll get into the squad (to face England) and make the starting eleven for the first Test.”
