Match Details

Essex will meet Glamorgan in the upcoming South Group battle in the T20 Blast tournament. This match will take place at the County Ground in Chelmsford.

This encounter will be played on July 1 (Thursday) at 11:30 PM IST.

Preview

Both these teams have blown hot and cold this season and would like to put up a substantial show in the upcoming contest. Essex were impressive in several games but winning consistently has been an issue for them. They are currently holding sixth place in the South Group team standings with four victories in just 10 games.

On the other hand, Glamorgan’s campaign has been even worse. Having won just three of their 10 games, the Chris Cooke-led side are seventh in the points table and would be determined to go up. Notably, Glamorgan walked away with a seven-wicket triumph when these two sides met last in the competition.
