Vince Looking For His Side To Find Form In Final Vitality Blast Matches

James Vince looks ahead to Friday's Vitality Blast match against Glamorgan

James Vince has insisted his side won't "roll over easily" in their last four Vitality Blast fixtures to help take some momentum into the remaining Specsavers County Championship matches.

Hampshire were officially ruled out of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Blast following their six-wicket defeat to Somerset on Wednesday.

But skipper Vince has sent a rallying call to his team-mates in a bid to find some form heading into a crucial period of red-ball action.

“We still have to turn up in the last games,” Vince said. “We are still proud of Hampshire and we are still proud of the team we have.

“We aren’t going to roll over easily. That is why I was happy with the way we came out with the ball in the second half of the Somerset game.

“There are four games to go and we are looking for wins to take some momentum into the back end of the season.

“It is important that there is a good feeling amongst the group and we don’t start doubting ourselves and turning on each other.

“We need to stick together and nothing helps more than winning a few games.”

Vince’s side are straight back into action against Glamorgan in Cardiff on Friday night and will be looking to avenge a 63-run defeat by the Welsh side earlier in the campaign.

“Glamorgan are a very good side and have a few very dangerous players,” Vince said.

“It is a different ground to play on with short straight boundaries. It is a ground where if you haven’t played at often or haven’t played at before then you might have to have a think about how you are going to go about it.

“It is another opportunity for this team to make some contributions and get another win on the board.

“We want wickets up front, like in every game. Colin Ingram is their real danger man. He is in good form and is always a big wicket.

“But it isn’t just him, they have a good side, like every side in the South Group. It will be a tough test.
