Glamorgan have confirmed the departure of Graham Wagg following the failure to agree a new contract with the allrounder.

The 37-year-old's existing deal runs until the end of October but there will be no extension.

Wagg departs having spent 10 seasons in south Wales, during which time he played 259 matches across all formats.

In total, he claimed 414 wickets and scored 5,943 runs but is preparing for a new challenge in the dying embers of his career.

"I still have that burning desire to play cricket that I did all those years ago, and while I am sad to be leaving the club, it will always have a special place in my heart and I leave with nothing but positive feelings to Glamorgan," the ex-Warwickshire and Derbyshire man said.

Director of cricket Mark Wallace added: "Graham’s wholehearted and passionate style have been a feature of his 10 years at the club making him popular with both players and supporters alike. 

"He has influenced games for the club with both bat, ball and in the field and his timeless energy will certainly be missed both inside and outside the dressing room."
