Glamorgan’s sub-par batters had no answer for title-chasing Warwickshire’s vicious seam attack, and could only muster 134 runs over both innings. <\/p>\n
Captain Ed Barnard took eight wickets while Ethan Bamber remarkably took the first five wickets of the day during that first innings, drawing high praise from Dawson.<\/p>\n
“Sometimes you’ve just got to find a way to do the job and get through a tough period. They were disciplined, you know what you’re going to get with Warwickshire, they’re on the money with their seam attack,” he added.<\/p>\n
“They’ve got a top-class spinner as well, but you also have to show discipline and application, clarity in your plans, put your ego to one side at times as well and just try and get the job done and we have not done that.”<\/p>\n
The Welsh county sit seventh in the Division One table, are in worrying form and will need to improve if they are to seal a spot in Division One for 2027.<\/p>\n
Leicestershire occupy the final relegation spot, and could face a crucial points deduction after being charged with breaching the ECB’s pitch regulations<\/a> during their 42-run win against Glamorgan on 20 August.<\/p>\n Despite the possibility of a reprieve for Dawson’s side, he insists his players must be up for the challenge if they are to survive.<\/p>\n “We’ve talked as a group about how we’re going to move forward and improve, so it’s not through lack of hitting balls or bowling balls,” said Dawson.<\/p>\n “It’s when you get out into the middle and you’re under pressure, that’s where you need to make sure that your basics are nailed down and we just haven’t done that and it costs you against decent sides.”<\/p>\n Next up for Glamorgan is a crucial trip to Surrey, where they will look to build on their recent success against the hosts.<\/p>\n
