It's April 26. You're listening to Lester News today, AI-powered local news. I'm Cory with the story. Lester shards of total control on day three of their county championship clash against Glamorgan at Sofia Gardens in Cardiff, racking up five. Hundred for five and 144 overs to grab a 60-run lead over the hosts 440. Resuming at two and 15 for one, the Foxes kept the pressure on after Ozzy opener Jake weather-old retired hurt on 104 from the night before with Ian Holland anchoring 79 and Rishi Patel adding 79 earlier in the innings. Glamorgan fought back where they could, but their bowlers leaked run steadily on the hybrid pitch, hampered by a few sloppy-feelting errors that let. Lester Shire crews without much drama. Ryan had at least stood out for the home side, snagging two wickets with sharp short pitch stuff while Johnny Tattersaw remained unbeaten on 86. And Stevie Eskenazi nosh 50 before falling just past his half-century mark.

Lester Shire pocketed six points to Glamorgan's four, setting up a real test for the hosts in their second dig as the visitors eye a strong finish to seal the deal.
