New Ground for Glamorgan for One Day Cup Clash

9 May 2017 | Matches
Glamorgan are aiming for back-to-back wins in the Royal London One-Day Cup tomorrow when they travel to Radlett CC to play Middlesex (11am start).

The Welsh county breathed fresh life into their 50-over campaign snatching victory from the jaws of defeat against Essex at The SSE SWALEC on Sunday. After Colin Ingram blasted 142 runs to double his total in this year’s competition Essex were set a target of 282 to win which proved just beyond them by the narrowest of margins.

Captain Jacques Rudolph has overcome illness, which curtailed his participation in Sunday’s encounter, to lead the side, whilst batsman Will Bragg and seamer Timm van der Gugten retain their places as they continue their return following injury.

Lukas Carey and Andrew Salter join the starting eleven from last weekend in the travelling squad, with the latter featuring alongside Aneurin Donald in the Second XI clash with Leicestershire at Lutterworth today, a match which has also seen Ruaidhri Smith’s return to bowling action following injury.

Glamorgan have no new injury worries ahead of tomorrow’s clash with Graham Wagg the only player still sidelined. The following 13 man squad travel to face last year’s County Championship champions:

Glamorgan squad: Jacques Rudolph (c ), David Lloyd, Will Bragg, Colin Ingram, Kiran Carlson, Aneurin Donald, Chris Cooke (wk), Craig Meschede, Andrew Salter, Marchant de Lange, Timm van der Gugten, Lukas Carey, Michael Hogan.

Middlesex include former Glamorgan player James Franklin as captain, plus Tom Helm who spent a stint on loan with the Welsh county in 2014 and England international Steve Finn amongst their attack
