Glamorgan had advanced to 117-3 at tea after only two overs were possible in the afternoon session of day one against Yorkshire at Colwyn Bay before rain halted proceedings.

The first over after the break from Mitchell Starc was dismissed for 18 runs by Stewart Walters, who remains unbeaten on 37.

Ryan Sidebottom has signed a one-year extension to his Yorkshire contract that will see the seam bowler remain at the county until the end of the 2014 season.

But with rain setting in on the Welsh coast and the forecast gloomy for tomorrow, there is little else for the large contingent of travelling Tykes fans to smile about beneath their umbrellas.
