On the first day of the Rothesay County Championship Division Two, Middlesex's bowlers, led by captain Toby Roland-Jones, dominated Glamorgan as they collapsed from 108-1 to 199 all out. Various bowlers contributed, including Dane Paterson taking two wickets on debut. Glamorgan's Ul Hassan scored 65, and Kellaway added 54 not out, but their efforts were undermined by a series of wickets falling in rapid succession. Middlesex responded strongly, reaching 63 without loss as they took control heading into the second day, trailing by 136 runs.
Middlesex's seamers dominated the afternoon session, taking seven wickets and turning Glamorgan's initial solid performance into a dramatic collapse from 108-1 to 147-7.
Glamorgan's Ul Hassan and Kellaway had promising starts with scores of 65 and 54*, but the batting order fell apart after a strong start.
Captain Toby Roland-Jones excelled with 3-44, leading the bowling attack that capitalized on challenging conditions as the clouds covered the playing field.
Middlesex reached 63 without loss in response to Glamorgan's 199, taking early control thanks to a resilient unbeaten run by Eskinazi.
