Bragg Says Glamorgan Need 400

25 Apr 2016 | Cricket
Will Bragg wants Glamorgan to score another 100 runs this morning, as the Welsh county\'s lower order resume this morning on 308/6.

Bragg was the star on Day One of Glamorgan's Specsavers County Championship clash with Derbyshire, after scoring 129 off 217 balls.

He was accompanied by Chris Cooke (40) and Aneurin Donald (45) but was 'disappointed' to get out late in the day, falling LBW to off-spinner Wes Durston.

And Bragg now wants Glamorgan to go past 400 in their first innings, with Graham Wagg and Craig Meschede at the crease.

Bragg said: "I was a bit disappointed with the circumstances that I got out near the end and i think the game is in the balance at the moment. We need another hundred runs to be a bit more than competitive.

"I'm happy overall, it could have been better and the ball that got me should not have got me out when I'm on 129. Maybe it was a lapse in concentration and I was disappointed at the end."

Derbyshire's Tony Palladino took 3/62 for the hosts, including the wickets of James Kettleborough, Jacques Rudolph and Chris Cooke.

He said: "We bowled pretty well as a unit. We just had to stick at it and when the rain came, the ball got soft which was a bit annoying but we said we had to keep going and not let them get away."

Glamorgan's first innings resumes at Derby at 11am this morning.
