Dickson has no regrets following Somerset's loss of their fourth title in a week.

Both teams are content to decide the field's ultimate because the shorter contest beats the bad weather.

After a first-day disaster in the Metro Bank One-Day Cup final at Trent Bridge, Glamorgan managed to beat both Somerset and the wind to restore the subject that they last won in 2021, in a contest that was pragmatically reduced from 50-overs-a-side to 20 to maximise the idea of a outcome.

It was, as Sam Northeast, Glamorgan's matchwinning flour, said:" the right thing to do in the situation". Sean Dickson, the captain of Somerset, insisted that his overriding emotion was one of pride despite the fact that his team lost their second title to Surrey in the T20 Blast ultimate on Friday, ending their run of the county championship in a week.

" We had n't played any Twenty20 for a while so it was strange coming into a 20-over contest," Northeast told the ECB Reporters Network, after top-scoring for his team with 63 not out from 49 balls. " We did n't even know we were going to get a game at all, so the change from 50 to 20 overs, about 40 minutes before, meant we had to adapt as best as possible.

" In the event, it started to rain only as we were coming down, so someone was evidently looking down on us. I'm happy they did make the change. It was the right thing to do in the conditions, to get the match on. "

Somerset had made the early running after winning the toss and choosing to pitcher, with Alfie Ogborne, their 21-year-old left-armer bowler, claiming two innings in his first over. However, the group's ignorance was exposed at crucial times of the competition, especially while Northeast, Billy Root and Timm van der Gugten were accelerating through the back-end of their pitches to include 115 in the last ten overs.

" We did n't really know what a good score was," Northeast said. " But from my point of view it was just about creating alliances, getting a bit of a system and trying to promote once we had a feel for the pitch.

" At one point we thought 160 may be cool but that little pitches from Timm van der Gugten at the end gave us what we thought was a very good score, one that we knew would become aggressive. We had something to create on because Timm actually hit the ball very well and Billy Root also did it through the center. "

Somerset were without 11 players from this year's Men's Hundred, which had taken place parallel with the group stages because they had chosen to back the players who had led them to the last. England's left-arm spinner, Jack Leach, was the team's most expert player on the day, but he did not receive a bowl due to the damp conditions and the List A regulation fields, which limited the number of outfielders allowed to enter mid overs.

" As a province, we've ended up winning little when we would have liked to end with at least one or two medals," Dickson said. The point is that we have only won three medals as a team and are extremely happy of how well we did that.

" In this contest, we have resisted the temptation to bring back people that we lost to the Hundred, so I'm hugely pleased that this crew in specific made it all the way to the last.

" And we were little happier now to be able to go out and try to win on the area, rather than have had a total disaster and shared the prize. No one wants to share a medal, everyone wants a knock at trying to be a success.

" We were good playing it as a T20. We really wanted to get a game on, as did they. We were all in agreement after having a conversation with the match officials, the judges, and the ECB official there.

" We could go over the results of the sport all morning, but I believe they both bowled better than we did. With the innovative game up best, it undoubtedly had something to offer.

" Our batsmen were slipping and sliding all over the place, which was terrible, but that's what you get for choosing to bowl first and we just have to take our medicine and move forward. "
