His 111 followed an impressive 78 for Wales Minor Counties against MCC at Lords in midweek and selection for Glamorgan 2nd's against Surrey at Guildford this coming week.

All the Newport bowlers picked up wickets, Harry Powell1-14, Michael Clayden 2-21, Dean Cosker 1-29, Joe Voke 2-20, Callum Taylor 1-22 and Scott Thornton claiming 3-28.
