Maynard and Labuschagne review Worcestershire draw

4 Jul 2019 | Cricket

Glamorgan and Worcestershire shared the spoils at Sophia Gardens as Day 4 finished with the away side shaking hands on 143/1.

Glamorgan remain unbeaten in the Specsavers County Championship, with Marnus Labuschagne becoming the first Glamorgan player since 2005 to score two centuries in a match.

"I've probably never batted this well for this period of time, consistently being able to do that (after six consecutive scores of 50 or more), so I'm really trying to hold onto that because you know as a cricketer there'll be ups and downs.

"(Returning in future seasons) is something we're talking about, I've loved my time at Glamorgan, the people, the coaches, support staff and supporters have been really welcoming.

"I'd definitely like to come back but that'll be revealed over the next few months."

Glamorgan set Worcestershire 326 in 66 overs but the visitors were unable to mount a serious challenge and left Cardiff with 10 points to Glamorgan's 13.

"We expected the wicket to do a bit more, either break up or go up and down," said Maynard. "We thought we had a chance but it wasn't to be on a good wicket against a very strong side. To get more points than them is very rewarding.

"We have five games left, other sides have six or seven, but we know we're in a position where we can get promotion so we've got to keep performing as we have been doing.

"We'll be keen to finish (this block) in the Championship with a win against Middlesex."
