The list below shows the results of the last six games by Worcestershire at their headquarters against Glamorgan in List A cricket:

4 Aug 2002 at Worcester – Glamorgan won by 22 runs.
29 July 2003 at Worcester - Worcestershire won by 3 runs.
17 July 2005 at Worcester - Glamorgan won by 5 wickets.
5 May 2008 at Worcester – Worcestershire won by 7 wickets.
22 August 2010 at Worcester - Worcestershire won by 178 runs.
23 August 2022 at Worcester - Glamorgan won by 19 runs.

Glamorgan’s away match last year against Worcestershire saw Sam Northeast score a Club record 177*, whilst Billy Root made an unbeaten 113 as Glamorgan made a mammoth 356-3. Their efforts were not quite enough to see the Welsh county to a place in the knockout stages of the competition, but they laid the foundations for a victory by 19 runs.

This had been Glamorgan first List A victory at Worcester since July 2005 when Vikram Solanki had made a polished half-century with the Rapids captain adding 91 for the first wicket with Stephen Moore who went on to post his maiden one-day hundred. However, their efforts were not enough to prevent a Glamorgan victory as half centuries from Michael Powell, David Hemp and Sourav Ganguly saw the Welsh county to their target of 274, and all with an over to spare.

Worcestershire’s most recent List A victory over Glamorgan at New Road came in August 2010 when the home team were the emphatic winners by 178 runs as Moeen Ali posted a high-class century before Shakib-al-Hasan, the Bangladesh all-rounder, claimed 4/31.
