Head Coach Matt Maynard has named an unchanged 13-man squad for our LV= County Championship fixture against Yorkshire.
The Welsh county travel North to face the white-rose County, and are still searching for their first win.
A Club record 8th wicket stand of 211 between Chris Cooke and Michael Neser and a second five-wicket haul of the summer for Timm van der Gugten were the highlights of the Glamorgan performance on a flat wicket at Leicestershire.
Neser will hope to replicate his form with the ball the last time the two sides faced off in the County Championship, with the Australian taking his first five-fer for the Club
Glamorgan head into the fixture still in 5th place in the Division Two table after drawing three games in a row, While Yorkshire lay second-bottom after a loss, a draw and a no-result in their three fixtures.
View from the camp – Matt Maynard
"Leicestershire was an improvement on the Durham game, which was what I was hoping for. To recover how we did and to create more history for the Club was fantastic.
“I don’t think our bowling attack is far away from where it needs to be, and it will be a great test if us as a side up in Headingley, and we are looking forward to the prospect of playing Jonny Bairstow.
“Jonny is a class player who suffered a horrendous injury, and it's great to see him back playing cricket. I hope he does play because that is who County players aspire to be like, but I hope we get him out cheaply twice!”
Head-to-head – Yorkshire vs Glamorgan
The Welsh county held the upper hand on their most recent visit to Headingley in 2021, as they drew their Championship match with Yorkshire having set the White Roses a notional target of 379 from 76 overs after snow had seen the loss of play on the third day. Glamorgan’s strong position after their second innings was the result of an unbroken fifth wicket stand of 212 in 69.5 overs between Billy Root and Chris Cooke, who each scored individual hundreds.
Had it not been for the inclement weather two years ago, Glamorgan might have recorded their first victory at Headingley since September 1999 and a game when Matthew Maynard, now the Club’s red-ball coach scored a majestic 186 before Steve Watkin claimed four wickets as the Tykes were forced to follow-on. Owen Parkin took the bowling honours during Yorkshire’s second innings as, despite a century from Richard Blakey, Glamorgan wrapped up victory by an innings and 52 runs inside three days.
Matthew’s hundred is one of only fifteen centuries to have been scored by Glamorgan's batters on Yorkshire soil in Championship cricket. As far as the bowling records for the Welsh county in Yorkshire are concerned, they are held – like so many in the Club’s annals - by the legendary Don Shepherd, with the off-cutter returning match figures of 9/56 in the game at Scarborough in 1966.
