Match scorecard<\/a><\/p>\nWarwickshire crushed Glamorgan by an innings and 257 runs as they skittled the hosts for just 65 after running up a massive first-innings lead of 322.<\/b><\/p>\n
The title-chasing Bears’ accurate seam bowling was too much for Glamorgan, with Ed Barnard taking 5-13 as the hosts lost their last nine wickets for a paltry 23 runs. <\/p>\n
The home batting fell apart in crushing fashion for the second time in the match as their dismal form since the resumption of the Championship got even worse. <\/p>\n
The Bears batted solidly down the order for their first innings of 391, with Sam Hain making 76 and Barnard reaching 51, adding to Will Young’s earlier 60.<\/p>\n
The early win put the pressure on Warwickshire’s Division One rivals Somerset and Nottinghamshire with two rounds left.<\/p>\n
Resuming on 154-3, Warwickshire made solid progress in their efforts to turn the screw despite losing Vansh Jani for 28, bowled by Timm van der Gugten with a ball that nipped back to hit the top of middle stump.<\/p>\n
Hain and Barnard added 86 with Hain looking set for his second century in a largely untroubled knock before edging Mason Crane to slip. <\/p>\n
Crane troubled Kai Smith early on, but it was Glamorgan’s third spinner, Kiran Carlson, who removed Barnard just after he had reached a 72-ball half-century, the quickest of the three Bears batters to the landmark.<\/p>\n
Chris Woakes started strongly, passing 7,000 first-class runs, before being caught behind off van der Gugten’s third delivery with the new ball- which Glamorgan delayed taking by two overs. <\/p>\n
Wicket-keeper Smith, 21, did his best to shepherd the visitors to a fourth batting point with an unbeaten 49 but ran out of partners, after some confusion over tactics from both sides with nine wickets down. <\/p>\n
Glamorgan’s second innings began badly with teenage debutant Jack Hope-Bell getting off a pair before edging Chris Woakes to slip.<\/p>\n
Asa Tribe (27) and Carlson took the score to 42 before four wickets fell in successive overs to leave the hosts in utter disarray.<\/p>\n
Tribe was leg-before to Barnard, Carlson went the same way – playing no shot to Hannon-Dalby – Ingram edged Barnard to slip and Hannon-Dalby yorked Kellaway. <\/p>\n
Barnard and Manav Suthar then rampaged through the lower order, with the former finishing with match figures of eight for 18 while the Indian spinner took three wickets without conceding a run.<\/p>\n
The last four wickets fell without addition to emphasise the scale of Warwickshire’s dominance.<\/p>\n
Warwickshire continue their title chase as they next travel to Essex starting on Tuesday, 15 September, while a shell-shocked Glamorgan must try to restore some pride when they visit Surrey on the same date.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
