Glamorgan claimed home advantage in the Twenty20 Cup quarter-finals with a 20-run win over Worcestershire. But the Royals also go through to the next round having won their first two games in the competition.
Matthew Maynard hit a brisk 44 and Mark Wallace a vital 32 not out from 16 balls as Glamorgan posted 140-6.
