da imperador bet: Andrew Hignell31-Jul-2003David Harrison celebrated his 22nd birthday with a spell of 4-6 in 22 ballsas Worcestershire were dismissed for 237 in 63 overs on a rain affected opening dayof the Championship match at New Road. However, it was not all joy for the young seamer, as he wasone of two Glamorgan batsmen to be dismissed, as his team ended an eventful day on 0-2.After an hour`s play had been lost due to morning drizzle, Robert Croft won the tossand elected to bowl first. Stephen Peters and Anurag Singh added 44 in 14 overs beforelunch, but the game changed complexion immediately after the interval as Glamorgan`s changebowlers – Darren Thomas and David Harrison – were introduced into the attack.Thomas made the breakthrough with his second ball as Singh edged an away swinger towicket-keeper Mark Wallace. Then Harrison took two wickets in his opening over, as Graeme Hickdrove a slower ball loosely to cover where Alex Wharf took a good catch diving forward, and then Ben Smithwas caught by Mike Powell at first slip, as Worcestershire slumped to 46-3.Peters and Vikram Solanki then added 18 runs before Harrison dismissed both batsmen in thespace of seven deliveries, as Solanki was caught by Matthew Maynard at third slip, andPeters was caught behind by Wallace. A rearguard action was mounted by David Leatherdale and Gareth Batty,who added 101 either side of tea for the sixth wicket. With Leatherdale dropping anchor, Batty playedsome crisp drives through the off side, before reaching his half-century with two sixes in three balls from Robert Croft.Batty brought up the century stand with another lofted drive over long-off, but in the next overhe mistimed a drive against Wharf and was caught by Ian Thomas at cover point. Powell then took a finecatch at slip as Stephen Rhodes got a thick edge, trying to run his first ball from Croft down to third man.Leatherdale duly reached his first half-century of the season, but he then fell in identical fashion to Batty,as he drove a slower ball from Wharf into Ian Thomas` hands in the covers.After a further stoppage because of bad light, Kabir Ali launched a counter-attack, hoisting Alex Wharffor two sixes over long-on, before hitting the same bowler over the sightscreens at the Diglis End, and plantingDavid Harrison into the sponsors boxes at the New Road end to bring up the 50 partnership. His merry standfor the ninth wicket with Matt Mason was worth 54 in 10 overs when Mason chipped Wharf to Croft atmid-off, and Wharf swiftly finished off the innings by clean bowling Nantie Hayward to finish with 4/63.Glamorgan had an awkward seven overs to negotiate in gloomy light, and they lost two wickets in the opening over, asJimmy Maher was caught behind by Rhodes as he tried to leg-glance Hayward`s second delivery, and then two balls later,David Harrison was bowled by Hayward. However, the umpires adjudged that the light had deteriorated beforeKabir Ali could start the second over, and Glamorgan finished the day, that had seen 38 oversbeing lost, still 237 runs behind with 8 wickets still standing.
