A century from Sam Northeast steers Glamorgan to a five wicket win over Northants despite hundreds from Ricardo Vasconcelos and Rob Keogh.
MetroBank One Day Cup;Sophia Gardens, Cardiff: Northeast 100, Ingram 69, Byrom 50A century from Sam Northeast spearheaded Glamorgan's dash to a five wicket victory over Northants, reaching 343-5 with 16 balls to spare.They lost quick wickets in the middle before Billy Root and Alex Horton added a vital 81 unbeaten.
The visitors started positively after choosing to bat, helped by Vasconcelos being dropped behind off Jamie McIlroy in the first over, and reached 60 without loss in the first powerplay. Vasconcelos and Keogh soon had the run-rate mounting again as they joined Whiteman in registering their highest scores of a troubled batting campaign on the way to the Steelbacks' highest ever limited overs score against Glamorgan.
Bat continued to dominate ball as Northeast and Byrom found the gaps with ease in a stand of 108 in only 13 overs, Byrom posting the day's quickest 50 before steering James Sales to diving wicketkeeper Lewis MacManus. Taylor struck again as Kiran Carlson holed out at deep square for 28 and Kellaway fell to Newport-born leg-spinner Alex Russell for three, to tilt the game back towards Northants at 262-5.
"I've had a few scores without going on in this competition so it was nice to go on and hopefully build for the rest of the season.
