Fresh off Friday’s unforgettable victory, the Rapids head into Friday’s penultimate group game well-placed to enter the knockout phases of the tournament.

A run chase masterminded by the imperious Jake Libby saw contributions across the batting card, with opening batters Brett D’Oliveira and Isaac Mohammed hitting their straps early on in a stand of 60, before Libby and Kashif broke the back of the chase.

Some powerful late ball striking saw the visitors home, in arguably the most important and impressive result of the Worcestershire campaign so far.

Dealing with the unavailability of senior stars Ethan Brookes, Adam Hose, Matthew Waite and Jack Home, Jones says his team will continue to keep fighting to defend their title in the same manner.

“We will stick to our guns, for sure.

“Everything we focus on is about us, and we pride ourselves on scrapping until the very end and going toe to toe with anyone, regardless of the format. 

“Glamorgan are a dangerous side and pushed Essex close on Friday, so we will have to be at our best, and that means doing our basics really well and executing our skills throughout.

“It is what worked for us last year and we have full faith within the group that our best cricket will put us in the right place to get a result on Sunday.

“We aren’t thinking about anything else other than that for the moment.”
