Pre-Match Analysis:

Gloucestershire needs to figure out things after their disastrous 7 wickets loss to Kent in their 1st round game. Chris Dent was their only notable contributor who scored 55 runs in the team’s total of 113 runs. The other batters had no clue whatsoever and perished way too early. Tom Smith bowled quite well while defending the smallest target of 114 runs, picking up 3 wickets. Their batters couldn’t ask for a better venue to regain their form back as they are going to play at home. Graeme van Buuren who missed the last game due to injury is in the line to make his comeback.

Glamorgan finished 6th in the South Group standings last season with 12 points. Sam Northeast was fabulous with the bat, scoring 510 runs at an average of 51 and the rest of the members failed to make a big impact. Kiran Carlson has been handed the responsibility to lead the side in place of David Lloyd who misses this game due to a hamstring injury. Colin Ingram and Michael Neser have extended their contract with the side as overseas players. Upcoming all-rounder Ben Kellaway could make his debut for Glamorgan.
