Share and Follow

The T20 Blast 2023 will witness an exciting clash between Gloucestershire and Glamorgan at the County Ground in Bristol on Friday, May 26. This much-anticipated encounter in the South Group is set to commence at 11 PM IST. Gloucestershire has already competed in one match, while Glamorgan will inaugurate their season with this thrilling game.

In their previous match, Gloucestershire took on Kent and set a target of 113 runs while batting first. The standout performance came from Chris Dent, who scored an impressive 55 runs. However, the bowlers from Kent, particularly Michael Hogan, stood out by taking 3 wickets.

When it was their turn to bat, Kent’s batters dominated the show, wrapping up the match in just 13.3 overs. The middle-order batter Jordan Cox played a crucial role, contributing 38* off just 17 balls. Gloucestershire managed to take only 3 wickets of the Kent team.

On Friday, Glamorgan will commence their South Group campaign, but they will have to do so without the services of their leading wicket-taker from 2022, Michael Hogan, who played against Gloucestershire for his new team, Kent, in their previous match.

In the absence of the injured David Lloyd, Kiran Carlson will captain the Glamorgan side. Despite the setback, they can rely on the consistent performances of Sam Northeast, who was the top run-scorer for Glamorgan in 2022, accumulating 510 runs.

Glamorgan’s lineup also boasts international experience with overseas players Michael Neser and Colin Ingram. With their inclusion, Glamorgan aims to enhance their previous season’s performance and move up from their sixth-place finish in the South Group.
