Glamorgan v Surrey, T20, Cardiff, 17/08/18

The final match of Glamorgan's T20 campaign was something of a damp squib ending in a DLS victory for Surrey after rain curtailed the visitors' chase of 184.

Both sides started the evening still hopeful of qualifying for the quarter finals via a top 4 place in the South Group. However, this relied on Sussex losing to Middlesex, which was unlikely to, and ultimately didn't, happen.

Glamorgan went pretty well in their 20 overs, although lacked the really big score to push them closer to 200. David Lloyd top scored with 39.

Rain delayed Surrey's reply but got in enough of their innings to pass the adjusted target of 36 for no loss in the minimum 5 overs required, with Aaron Finch blasting 44 not out off  just 16 balls.

Ultimately, Glamorgan just wasn't good enough in this year's T20 and is too reliant on Colin Ingram to score big and quickly.
