Ganguly to reveal Twenty20 class
TWENTY20 CUP
Sourav Ganguly
*All Glamorgan's Twenty20 games are live on BBC Radio Wales and this website
Sophia Gardens, Cardiff
Wednesday, 22 June
Start time: 1900 BST

Glamorgan's Sourav Ganguly says he is sure his game will adapt as he prepares for his first ever game of Twenty20.

"I'll keep it simple and play as I do in one-day cricket, but try to pace it quicker," said the India captain, who faces Somerset in Cardiff on Wednesday.

"You don't throw the coaching book out. I'll probably open, so I'll have a good 20 overs and will want to stick around.

"I'll take a couple of balls to look at the bowler, I've always believed in that in the one-day game."

Glamorgan had a spring in their step in training, with the squad looking forward to a break from a desperate Championship campaign.

We're a flexible, inventive side in batting and bowling and are well balanced for this competition
Glamorgan captain Robert Croft
"It's an opportunity to regroup as things clearly haven't gone our way this season," said captain Robert Croft, who led his side to the semi-finals of the Twenty20 Cup last summer.

"There are some fantastic memories from last year when there was a real buzz at Sophia Gardens in front of great crowds.

"We're a flexible, inventive side in batting and bowling and are well balanced for this competition."
