Barnard left 'almost speechless' by giant win over Glamorgan

“I didn't really know where to start. You plan games and think about how you want them to go, but I wouldn't have even dreamed of it going that well."

Ed Barnard has had to deal with a few challenges in his first season as Warwickshire captain. This week brought another: What do you say to your team in your post-match address after they have put in one of the best performances in the club’s history?  

The skipper admits he was left “almost speechless” after The Bears intensified their Championship title push after bowling Glamorgan out for 69 and 65 to win by an innings and 257 runs.  

The stunning all-round performance in Cardiff was built around half-centuries from Will Young, Sam Hain and Barnard and five-fors for Ethan Bamber and the captain. And, completed in two days, it earned the team two precious days off in the season’s hectic run-in.
