We had a great crowd tonight with a buzz around the ground - Neser

3 Jun 2022 | Cricket

Glamorgan defeated Essex Eagles by six wickets in their opening home match of this year's Vitality Blast after a dominant bowling display.

In front of the Sky Sports cameras, Glamorgan's seamers restricted Essex to just 113-9 from their 20 overs.

Michael Neser and Michael Hogan starred with three wickets each, Neser taking a T20 career-best 3-13 and Hogan bringing his tally to 12 wickets from four games in the competition as he won player of the match.

"It is always nice to get off to a first win at your home ground," said Neser.

"We had a great crowd tonight with a buzz around the ground so good to get off the mark.

"Michael (Hogan) has been doing it every game so far. He is Mr Reliable at the moment and bowled fantastically again, carrying on his red ball form into the T20.

"The wicket was a bit two-paced and as a bowling group, we summed up the situation well early on which helped us restrict them to what they scored."
