Just over a week ago, Glamorgan fans would have been on cloud nine having finished the first block of County Championship sitting third in the table. But they were brought firmly back down to earth last week with two gut-wrenching defeats in the opening two games of the Vitality T20 Blast. Now facing an uphill battle to keep their quarter final hopes alive, they face another baptism of fire against Blast champions Somerset.
The competition got off to a frustrating start as Glamorgan fell three runs short against Northamptonshire last Friday at Wantage Road. There was no time to lick their wounds as they prepared to face Gloucestershire the following night in Cardiff. Glamorgan would rally with the ball after a below par batting performance but again fall agonisingly short on the final ball. Two losses from two, although not sitting bottom of the group, after Warwickshire’s two losses keeps them anchored to the bottom, it’s a less than perfect start to a competition that feels a major Achillies heel for Glamorgan.
