Glamorgan coach calls for C&G format to change

Following Glamorgan's defeat to Somerset yesterday, rendering their chances of advancing in the C&G Trophy obselete, their coach, John Derrick, has called for a change in the tournament's format.

"It doesn't make sense that there is just a final, we need semis and there's a case for quarters," said Derrick.

"You only have to lose a couple and have others rained off early on and your campaign is all but over.

"That means dead games which are no use to anyone. Hopefully the authorities will realise that there is a need for change next season."
