Gloucestershire vs Glamorgan Prediction: Who Will Win 35th ODI Match on 15th August 2025?

Gloucestershire vs Glamorgan 35th ODI match prediction, let’s find out who will win. Today’s match prediction of GLOU vs GLAM 35th ODI 2025 is given below. Gloucestershire vs Glamorgan 35th ODI match is scheduled to be held on Friday, 15th August 2025 at Seat Unique Stadium, Bristol. Cricketwebs provide 100% match prediction tips for every cricket match.
A struggling Glamorgan will take on a confident Gloucestershire side in this encounter. Gloucestershire, riding high on three consecutive wins, are looking to further consolidate their position in the points table. With consistent performances from top-order batters like James Bracey, Ben Charlesworth, and Oliver Price, they have become one of the most feared batting line-ups this season. Their bowlers, led by Zaman Akhter and Josh Shaw, have also delivered key breakthroughs at crucial moments, making them a well-rounded team.
On the other hand, Glamorgan’s campaign has been disappointing so far, with the bowling department being their biggest weakness. Even after posting 300+ in their last match, their bowlers failed to defend a reduced target of 146 in 16 overs against Surrey. While skipper Kiran Carlson and William Smale have shown promise with the bat, lack of depth in their bowling attack continues to hurt them. This match will be a huge test for their bowling unit against the in-form Gloucestershire batting order.
Considering form, squad balance, and recent performances, Gloucestershire will start as favourites, but Glamorgan will be desperate to register their first win of the tournament.

Gloucestershire Preview
Gloucestershire enter this clash in high spirits after a perfect start to their campaign in the England One Day Cup 2025. The side has shown remarkable balance between bat and ball, picking up three wins on the trot. Their batting unit has been in superb touch, consistently posting or chasing big totals. James Bracey has been the standout performer at the top, narrowly missing out on a century in the last match when he was dismissed for 96. His ability to anchor the innings while maintaining a healthy strike rate has been invaluable. Partnering him, Cameron Bancroft finally found his rhythm in the previous game after a couple of quiet outings, adding depth to the top order.
The middle order, featuring Oliver Price, Ben Charlesworth, and skipper Jack Taylor, has been equally impactful. Charlesworth’s back-to-back fifties and Price’s opening-match century underline their reliability in pressure situations. Jack Taylor has also been contributing in both departments, providing handy overs with the ball.
On the bowling front, Gloucestershire’s pace attack, led by Josh Shaw, Matt Taylor, and Zaman Akhter, has been decisive. Akhter’s 4 for 47 in their opening win and Shaw’s 3 for 29 against Surrey highlight their wicket-taking abilities. The bowlers have been particularly effective in the powerplay, giving their team strong starts. With form, momentum, and home advantage on their side, Gloucestershire will be confident of continuing their winning streak against a struggling Glamorgan side.
Glamorgan Preview
Glamorgan find themselves in a tough position, yet to register a win in this season’s One Day Cup. Their campaign has been marred by inconsistent bowling and an inability to defend strong totals. In the opening match, they conceded 324 runs and failed to chase it down, while in the second, despite posting 308, their bowlers once again leaked runs at crucial junctures. The most recent defeat came under rain-affected conditions, where they had to defend 146 in 16 overs but were outplayed by Surrey.
Batting remains their stronger suit, with skipper Kiran Carlson leading from the front. Carlson scored a hundred in the opener, while William Smale smashed an unbeaten century in the second game. Sam Northeast adds solidity in the middle order, though the openers Edward Byrom and Asa Tribe have yet to make a significant impact. A better start could ease pressure on the middle order.
Bowling is the biggest concern for Glamorgan. Andy Gorvin, Zain-ul-Hassan, and Daniel Douthwaite are the mainstays, but they’ve struggled to pick up wickets regularly. Ned Leonard, however, has shown promise with a 3-wicket haul in the first match. The key for Glamorgan will be executing their bowling plans against an in-form Gloucestershire batting unit. If their bowlers can strike early and put the opposition under pressure, they may have a chance to turn their fortunes around.

Favourite Team in Today’s Match
Gloucestershire enter this contest as clear favourites due to their consistent performances in both batting and bowling departments. Their top order is in sublime form, with Bracey, Charlesworth, and Price regularly posting big scores. Add to that the finishing ability of Jack Taylor and the bowling firepower of Akhter and Shaw, and they have all bases covered. Glamorgan, in contrast, have been struggling with their bowling unit and lack penetration in the middle overs. Against a strong batting side like Gloucestershire, this could prove costly. Unless Glamorgan’s bowlers produce a rare inspired spell, Gloucestershire are expected to dominate proceedings.
