He's as good as anyone when he plays like that - Maynard

21 Sep 2022 | Cricket

Captain David Lloyd struck a career-best 203 not out to steer Glamorgan to an impressive 380/3 against promotion rivals Derbyshire on day one of their LV= County Championship clash at Sophia Gardens.

At the close of play, head coach Matt Maynard was 'delighted' for Lloyd and hopes the innings will help take the skipper's game to the next level.

"David was brilliant, he played very similarly at Lord's for 70 but today he kicked on and got a big hundred," said Maynard. "We've shown with those big partnerships we've learned from (defeat at) Lord's.

"To see Lloydy play with great intent, his array of shots, it's brilliant and he's as good as anyone when he plays like that.

"It's his first 'daddy century', it shows he's still learning about his game. It's fantastic and I'm so delighted for him because he puts so much hard work in, in the nets.

"Hopefully this will give him a lot of belief to take his game to the level we all think it can be."
