A late decision will be made on Davies tomorrow night but if he’s unable to play Benjamin will take the gloves and Briggs will skipper the side. Hassan Ali and Gleeson remain sidelined through injury.
The 2’s finish 3rd, just missing out on a finals day place due to Glamorgan having a rained-off game today and taking a point.
Currently raining. Glos finished 213/3 Chris Dent 165* (60)

Leicestershire’s Louis Kimber has just taken 43 runs off an Ollie Robinson over. A new English first class record. It included 3 no-balls, 5 x 6’s and 3x 4’s.
Apparently Gleeson went off with a hamstring injury so I don’t expect to see him back for this one.
