Bonus points may be all that is left to play for with more rain forecast at Cheltenham

County Championship Division Two, Cheltenham College (day two):

Glamorgan 450-6 dec (92.5 overs): Root 98, Cooke 86*, Lloyd 81, Carlson 76; Van Meekeren 3-92

Gloucestershire 134-1 (48 overs): Dent 61*, O Price 49*

The third day of Gloucestershire's Championship match against Glamorgan was wiped out by heavy rain.

Gloucestershire have reached 134-1 in reply to Glamorgan's impressive 450 for six declared.

However umpires Neil Pratt and Chris Watts made the inevitable decision at 13:30 BST.

Glamorgan, who started the round fourth in Division Two, could be willing to suggest declarations and an arranged run-chase.

But with further rain forecast, a contest for bonus points may be all that is left on a batter-friendly pitch.

If the match is drawn, Glamorgan would make up some ground on their promotion rivals, courtesy of their positive batting display, even if they slip a place to fifth.
