Preview:

Glamorgan played their opening match away from home against Gloucestershire. In that match, they were down and out but Marnus Labuschagne kept them in the hunt until the last over. They fell short by just four runs. Now, they will face Essex at home in Cardiff.

Essex have had a slightly disappointing season so far. In the first match, they somehow sneaked in with a three-wicket win against Somerset. In their second match, they lost against Hampshire. It is now time for them to stage a comeback. 

Match Details:

Venue: Sophia Gardens, Cardiff

Date & Time: June 13th at 7:00 PM IST and 2:30 PM local time

Pitch Report:

Sophia Gardens generally serves up a great pitch for batting. Any score can turn out to be difficult to defend on this surface. Having said that, the boundaries are awkwardly positioned making the contest between the bat and the ball slightly balanced.

Top Picks for GLA vs ESS Dream11 Match:

Top Picks ­– Glamorgan

Marnus Labuschagne scored an unbeaten 93 in the previous match. He scored those runs off just 56 balls and was looking in good touch throughout the tournament. 

Colin Ingram is a fantastic T20 batsman and has experience playing t20 cricket across the globe. He didn’t start off his tournament well but should be able to bounce back in the second match. 

Top Picks – Essex

James Neesham is an excellent all-rounder in T20 cricket. He would be looking to add to his tally of 81 runs and one wicket from the two matches. 

Samuel Cook has been perfect with the ball so far. He has taken five wickets from the two matches he has played. Cook has actually troubled batsmen in this tournament so far.

GLA vs ESS Risky Captaincy Choices:

Ryan ten Doeschate has not been batting really well in the last few matches. He doesn’t bowl these days, which makes him quite a one-dimensional player. That being said, he will be a risky captaincy pick.

Player you should avoid:

David Lloyd has not been in the best of form lately. He has not crossed fifty in some time now and it is better to avoid him.
