Prediction Summary
- Derbyshire holds a slight edge due to their resilient performance against Gloucestershire, where their top six batsmen all got starts, and their historical 25-20 lead in 45 List A matches against Glamorgan.
- Harry Came (69 runs) and Caleb Jewell (62 runs) showed promise, though their bowling needs tightening after conceding 342.
- Glamorgan’s Kiran Carlson is in scintillating form (135 off 92), but their bowling collapsed against Hampshire, leaking 324 runs.
- The Neath pitch favors batsmen, but spinners like Glamorgan’s Romano Franco could be key.
- Despite Glamorgan’s home advantage, Derbyshire’s balanced effort and recent fight make them likely to win by 20-30 runs or 4-5 wickets if chasing.
