GLO vs GLA Match Prediction - Jul 19, 2019

GLO vs GLA Team Previews

Gloucestershire

Just as we predicted, Somerset thumped Glamorgan in the opening encounter of the Vitality T20 Blast 2019. Glamorgan failed to assess and take advantage of the home conditions and ended up scoring a below-par score which was chased quickly by the tourists. Glamorgan will not have much time to ponder upon their loss as they have another high-voltage encounter coming up on 19th July at Cheltenham. Considering that Glamorgan would need to travel and then play this match, it is expected to be a hectic day, especially after the intense contest they had on Saturday. Gloucestershire, on the other hand, will be playing their first match of the tournament and will be eyeing to start with a win and bag two crucial points.

Glamorgan

Even though Glamorgan had an excellent start to their day on Saturday, the lack of a flourishing finish hurt them in the broader context as they lost their opening match, against Somerset, by eight wickets.

Batting first on a batting paradise, their openers got them off to a flying start, adding 88 runs in just 8.5 overs. Jeremy Lawlor and David Lloyd were spectacular in the powerplay offers in the process. However, they could add only 57 runs in the final ten overs which dearly hurt them. Colin Ingram was once again the standout player for them as they single-handedly blasted them to a total of 180 with his 28-ball 50.

Somerset's reply was equally impressive, to begin with as Marchant de Lange and Michael Hogan gave away plenty of easy runs. Although, Douthwaite and Salter picked up a wicket each towards the end of the innings, the pullback was too little too late to have any impact whatsoever on the result of the match.

GLO vs GLA Betting Tips

Vitality T20 Blast started in a brilliant fashion with superbly contested matches on an opening day. Glamorgan may find it a little hectic to travel after a heart-wrenching defeat, but will also be itching to bounce back to the contention. Gloucestershire are playing their opening match of the tournament and would love to get those two crucial points in front of their home crowd. Considering the two teams on paper, Glamorgan appear to be slightly better balanced with batting going pretty deep, at least on paper. They have already played a match in the competition and will be better adapted to the T20 conditions. Considering that and the reasons mentioned above, Glamorgan are better suited to emerge on top in the upcoming fixture.
