Glamorgan 2026 Squad, Results & Blast Stats

Glamorgan County Cricket Club represent Wales in the England and Wales domestic structure. The club is constituted as a Community Benefit Society controlled democratically by its members, rather than as a privately owned franchise.

The men's side finished fifth in the 2026 Vitality Blast Central & West Group with six wins, six losses, 24 points and a +0.217 net run rate. The top two teams in each group and the two best third-placed teams reached the quarter-finals; Glamorgan finished four points behind third-placed Gloucestershire, so net run rate did not decide their qualification.

Captain Kiran Carlson led the batting with 405 runs at a 195.65 strike rate and made the team's only century. Mason Crane and Nathan McAndrew shared the wicket lead with 15 each, while Ben Kellaway combined 249 runs with 14 wickets.

Glamorgan also field men's teams in the County Championship and One-Day Cup. The county owns half of Welsh Fire, but Welsh Fire is a distinct Hundred franchise, so its results are not mixed into this Glamorgan record.

The 19-player group combines every Glamorgan name documented in the county's 2026 Blast match squads. Seventeen of them appeared in at least one scorecard; Eddie Byrom and Callum Rhys Nicholls were listed on the bench but did not play.

Colin Ingram is not an unused squad member. He scored seven in the opener at Northampton before disappearing from later Blast XIs, so the page records one appearance without guessing why he was not selected again.

This distinction prevents two common errors: treating a bench listing as an appearance and dropping a one-match participant from the season group. It also keeps County Championship or One-Day Cup selection outside the T20 count.

No. The top two teams from each of the three groups qualified, joined by the two best third-placed teams. Glamorgan finished fifth in Central & West on 24 points, four behind third-placed Gloucestershire on 28.

Net run rate did place Warwickshire fourth, Glamorgan fifth and Worcestershire sixth after all three finished on 24 points. That ordering mattered to the final group table, but fourth place itself was not a quarter-final berth under the 2026 format.

Glamorgan therefore missed out on points before a cross-group third-place comparison was needed. The final 50-run win at Bristol improved their record and net run rate, but it could not erase the four-point gap to third.

The binding 2026 playing conditions award four points for a win, two for a tie or no result and none for a loss. Six wins therefore produced Glamorgan's published total of 24 points.

An ECB format explainer on the public website instead says two points for a win and one for a tie or no result. That text conflicts with both the playing-conditions document and the final ECB table, where Northamptonshire's nine wins equal 36 points and Glamorgan's six equal 24.

This page follows the competition regulations and the completed table. A two-point conversion would preserve the relative standings, but mixing the two scales would make the displayed totals internally inconsistent.

The 2026 competition used three groups of six and a 12-match schedule. Glamorgan played each of the other five Central & West teams home and away, which accounted for ten matches.

The remaining two fixtures crossed group boundaries: an away match against North Group side Lancashire and a home match against South Group side Middlesex. Both counted in Glamorgan's Central & West record.

Cross-group fixtures did not move Glamorgan into another table. Their six home dates remained at Sophia Gardens, while the Lancashire match was played at Stanley Park in Blackpool rather than Old Trafford.

No. Glamorgan are a member-owned county club that compete in the Blast, County Championship and One-Day Cup. Welsh Fire are a separate Hundred franchise with separate men's and women's squads, results and statistics.

Glamorgan retained 50% of Welsh Fire after Washington Freedom acquired the other 50% in the Hundred investment process. Shared ownership and the use of Sophia Gardens do not merge the two sporting records.

A player can represent both teams in the same summer, but each appearance belongs to its own competition. This page therefore excludes Welsh Fire matches from Glamorgan's 12-game Blast total and player aggregates.
