ESS vs GLA Match Prediction & Analysis
Glamorgan look to continue a strong winning run in the early stages of the 2024 One-Day Cup when they go up against Essex at the County Ground in Chelmsford. After having beaten Sussex by one wicket in the recent match, Glamorgan have maintained their 100% record. The team has won all four matches to sit at the top of the Group B standings along with Warwickshire.
Meanwhile, Essex are struggling near the foot with only two points from their first three matches. Even though there was a sigh of relief after Essex beat Gloucs, they could not follow that up in the recent match. A three-wicket loss to Leicestershire puts the pressure back on Essex coming into the game. Still, Essex have reasons to be positive after a decent performance against the defending champions.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Essex Preview
Essex were able to give Leicestershire a run for their money with a decent performance at the County Ground. After being sent to bat first, the team did well to make use of the batting surface to post a score of 290. There were half centuries from Matt Critchley, Charlie Allison, and Noah Thain as the middle order put forward a decent challenge after losing some early wickets.
Charlie Allison is the top scorer in the squad and his latest half century has taken him up to 134 runs in his three innings. Allison has hit two half centuries so far this season. Luc Benkenstein came up with solid performances against Warwickshire and Gloucs, but he was sent to the stands for just 12 by the defending champions.
It is with the ball where Essex have struggled this season. Richards has picked up the most wickets for Essex but he has only managed five from his three innings. The best figures from Richards were the 2/33 against Leicestershire. If Essex are to add to their solitary victory so far this season, the team needs more from the bowling line-up.
Essex Predicted Playing XI:
Robin Das, Feroze Khushi, Tom Westley (c), Matt Critchley, Charlie Allison, Luc Benkenstein, Noah Thain, Shane Snater, Jamal Richards, Aaron Beard, Simon Fernandes

Glamorgan Preview
Glamorgan have had a fantastic start to the season. The four consecutive wins for Glamorgan have put the team at the top spot of Group B. The team has a slender advantage in of Net Run Rate (NRR) over Warwickshire. This is a great time for Glamorgan to improve their recent head-to-head record against Essex. The last One-Day Cup victory for Glamorgan in this fixture was in 2021.
Eddie Byrom is the only batsman in the Glamorgan line-up with 200+ runs. The 27-year-old’s half-century against Sussex saw him move up to 207 runs for the season. After a brilliant 123 not out against Notts, Byrom appears to be in fine shape.
The impressive bowling line-up of Glamorgan has been at the heart of their success. Dan Douthwaite has particularly shined with more wickets (12) than any other player so far this season. Even though he is yet to get his first five-wicket haul in this format, his recent outing against Sussex saw him pick up numbers of 4/44. Andy Gorvin failed to pick up any wicket against Sussex but his length helped finish with a decent economy rate.
Glamorgan Predicted Playing XI:
Eddie Byrom, William Smale, Thomas Bevan, Colin Ingram, Kiran Carlson (c), Billy Root, Ben Kellaway, Dan Douthwaite, Timm van der Gugten, Andy Gorvin, Jamie McIlroy

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Chelmsford is expected to have cloudy weather conditions for the game. There is a very low probability of rain during the game, and humidity levels will be only at around 50%. The pitch has been very good for witnessing decent scores in both innings. In the two matches of 2024, the match total has exceeded 580 on both occasions.
ESS vs GLA Pitch Report
The County Ground in Chelmsford is an excellent surface for coming up with some big scores. The average first innings score from the two matches in 2024 is 307. The second innings score on average in 2024 stands at 309. Last season, these numbers were 253 and 211 respectively.
Toss: To Bowl
The surface continues to be an excellent place for chasing games. So far, there have been two One-Day Cup matches in 2024 and both have been won by teams who elected to chase after winning the toss. Last season, there was a slightly better winning percentage for teams batting first, but the preference for 2024 will be to bowl first.
ESS vs GLA
Winning Prediction
Glamorgan have been on a roll in the One-Day Cup with four consecutive victories. Despite playing at home, Essex remain under a strong amount of pressure. The bowling line-up of Essex has not been great and they are likely to struggle against the strong batting order of Glamorgan. The batting pitch also makes it conducive for a Glamorgan win.
Our prediction is for Glamorgan to win
