Moeen Ali finally found top form for Worcestershire with a Twenty20 best
Worcestershire eased into serious contention after going into their 19-day Twenty20 Cup break with a comfy 29-run win over Glamorgan in Cardiff.
Worcestershire's 164-6 was inspired by Vikram Solanki who got his men off to a flier with a quickfire 34 off 32 balls.
But their best work was done in a 78-run third-wicket stand between Stephen Moore, top scorer with 42, and Moeen Ali, who hit 41, his Twenty20 best.
Gareth Andrew then took 3-19 as Glamorgan were bowled out for 135.
He then also took a brilliant catch at backward point to finish the evening off by removing Glamorgan last man David Harrison.
Worcestershire now go into the break on eight points in the Midlands/West/Wales Division after three victories in four nights against Gloucestershire, Somerset and now Glamorgan too.
They return to action with the return game against Somerset on 23 June (1730 BST).
Glamorgan, who are all but out of it after picking up just two points from their first six games, return to action the same evening at Edgbaston against Warwickshire.
Worcestershire director of cricket Steve Rhodes told BBC Hereford and Worcester:
"We've outplayed the opposition. We really carried out all three disciplines very well.
"First by batting well to get a score that was a good score on that wicket.
"Then we bowled very well and we were good in the field as well."
