Gorvin grabs five-wicket haul as Glamorgan beat Sussex

Five wickets had gone for 10 runs, but Hudson-Prentice and Coles were undaunted as they counter-attacked hard.

Hudson-Prentice smashed 10 fours and a six as they added 118 for the sixth wicket to take the visitors ahead, but Gorvin broke the stand as Hudson-Prentice drove high to mid-wicket and Zain Ul Hassan took a leaping catch.

Gorvin, bowling skiddy wicket-to-wicket seam, won lbw shouts against Danny Lamb and Jack Carson in quick succession to complete his five-for and an early birthday present, two days before he turns 27.

But with a storm on the horizon, the players were taken off in mid-afternoon and the square covered minutes before the storm hit, with flashes of lightning and thunder rolling round the Welsh capital.

In bright evening sunshine. leg-spinner Mason Crane wrapped up the innings with the eighth and ninth balls after the resumption, leaving Coles stranded.

In the Glamorgan second innings Eddie Byrom hit a rapid 21 before falling to Ari Karvelas but Billy Root, with 36 not out, helped Glamorgan race to victory with around an hour to spare.
