Salter In Line For Colwyn Bay Return

16 Jul 2016 | Matches
Andrew Salter and Owen Morgan could both line up for Glamorgan against Derbyshire at Colwyn Bay tomorrow, as the Welsh county prepare for festival cricket in North Wales.

Glamorgan are without the injured pair of Chris Cooke (back) and Dean Cosker (calf) for the trip, while Colin Ingram and Timm van der Gugten have been rested.

Morgan, 22, could make his second Specsavers County Championship appearance for Glamorgan after impressing in the Welsh county's draw versus Sussex at Hove on debut.

Off-spinner Salter, also 22, is in line to return to the four-day side after featuring in Glamorgan's 25-run defeat to Hampshire at The Ageas Bowl in the NatWest T20 Blast. The Pembrokeshire-born man had been suffering with a dislocated finger.

Australian-born batsman Nick Selman will again open the batting alongside Mark Wallace in his third Championship appearance for Glamorgan. Selman hit a maiden first-class half-century against Sussex a week ago.

His inclusion means skipper Jacques Rudolph will bat down at Number Four, with in-form Will Bragg at Three.

Here is the 12-man Glamorgan squad in full: Mark Wallace, Nick Selman, Will Bragg, Jacques Rudolph (capt.), Aneurin Donald, David Lloyd, Graham Wagg, Craig Meschede, Andrew Salter, Owen Morgan, Michael Hogan, Jack Murphy.

Glamorgan's County Championship clash with Derbyshire gets underway tomorrow (Sunday) at 11am.
