Derbyshire move a point further in front of us then. They drawn two games with eight wickets down and had nine down against us - our failure to get the win in that game looks potentially very expensive.
Remarkable 2nd XI game- Glamorgan win by 1️⃣ run❗️
Glamorgan 463 (Alex Horton 186) & 243-4 dec (Eddie Byrom 135*)
Warwickshire 193 & 512 (Mohammed Rizvi 5-88, Romano Franco 3-67)
Warwickshire needed 4 with 2 wickets left after a late stand of 63, before Rizvi struck twice https://t.co/Wt2uUthhaM
I 've mentioned before on here about a second XI game in 1997 when Warwickshire set Somerset 612 to win. Somerset got to 595-7 then Marcus Trescothick was run out for 322 and Somerset were bowled out for 605 to lose by six runs.
I think that innings was a turning point for Trescothick at Somerset so he's probably got fond memories of it now but it must've been a bit of a sickener at the time.

I’m sure there was a Glamorgan v Somerset game at Swansea in the nineties where Trescothick batted at 8 and was in the side mainly as a medium pace bowler. I think there was another Glamorgan v Somerset where Trescothick so impressed then Glamorgan coach Duncan Fletcher that he was more or less straight into the England team when Fletcher took over from Bumble Lloyd.

The second one was a knock of 167 at Taunton. There's an article here about the innings that shaped his career and the 322 and that 167 are the first two mentioned.

I'd forgotten about his bowling but it rings a bell, I'd also forgotten he kept wicket for England in a few ODIs.
We lose Asa tribe for 4 day game starting Sunday and at least the next 4 blast games. Selected in jersey squad for t20WC euro qualifiers. Disappointing.
