In the end it was a good team win - Northeast

16 Jun 2022 | Cricket

Batter Sam Northeast helped guide Glamorgan to a five-wicket win over Sussex in their LV= County Championship clash at Sophia Gardens.

Set 141 to win from 43 overs, the Welsh county slipped to 9/3 before Kiran Carlson (45) and Northeast (45*) stabilised the innings with a 75-run partnership with Northeast eventually seeing Glamorgan over the line with 23 balls to spare.

"It probably should have been easy, especially after watching England who made chasing look like a breeze in the park, but we had a little stumble at the start and had to rebuild," said Northeast. 

"Kiran came out and played as his usual aggressive self, and made life easier for me. We got a partnership going and kept the momentum right to the end.

"The first thing I wanted to do was get off a pair, but then a bit of experience helps in those scenarios and in the end it was a good team win."
