Glamorgan's Glee as Smith falls to final ball

There was drama at Swansea as Neil Smith's dismissal to the last ball of the match with the totals even brought Warwickshire/Glamorgan a share of the honours in their National League Division Two encounter.

Rain had brought the players in with Glamorgan making only 167-4 off 38 overs: Matthew Eliott (84 n.o.) and Steve James (53) had put on a competent but cramped 101 runs for the second-wicket. According to the Duckworth-Lewis rules Warwickshire then had to make 202 runs over the same distance for victory. It seemed to be a tall order and the visitors started none too well so that at the end of 28 overs were only 134-6. Captain Neil Smith amd Michael Powell brought the target more within reach by putting on 67 runs for the seventh wicket. With seven runs needed off the final over from Adam Dale the batsmen levelled the scores with the last ball remaining - with which Smith was bowled. The Glamorgan fieldsmen who thought the game had been lost celebrated gleefully.
