In 1969, Glamorgan finished the County Championship season undefeated and claimed the county's second triumph, with a 31-point lead over rivals Gloucestershire.
This achievement was all the more notable because they finished the season undefeated – a rare achievement and the first time this had happened since 1930.
To mark the anniversary, the St Helen's Balconiers are hosting a celebration lunch at The Towers Hotel, Swansea Bay, on Friday 8ft November 2019 (12 noon for 12.30).
It could be argued that the 1969 achievements were not entirely unexpected. Glamorgan had enjoyed a highly successful 1968 season, finishing in third place behind Champions Yorkshire and runners-up Kent, prompting skipper Tony Lewis to predict that 'another successful season should not be beyond the talents of this side'.
By the end of the season, Majid Jahangir and Don Shepherd were deservedly adjudged among Wisden's 'Five Cricketers of the Year' .
