We Can Still Go Up - Michael
20 July 2013
Gloucestershire moved up to fourth in the Division Two table on the back of a first Championship win at Cheltenham against Worcestershire since 1980.
Klinger led the way with a fluent 92, but he was denied a fifth Championship hundred of the season when he was bowled by Graeme Cessford.
Klinger said: "It was a super effort by the guys to get the result. For us, in terms of the table, we are now in a strong postion going into the back half of the season."
Asked if he was disappointed at missing out a century, Klinger said: I don't know if I would have had enough time to get a hundred, to be honest. That wasn't really on my mind.
"I just got a ball that came back in quite sharply, a bit of reverse swing, that did me. A hundred would obviously have been nice, but to be honest it was nothing to do with it.
"It was just about getting the team home and in the end I was probably a little disappointed to get out with seven needed, because I would like to have been not out and to have got the team over the line. But I'm still pleased I got the team pretty much there."
This year's Cheltenham Festival ends tomorrow with a Friends Life t20 game against Glamorgan (2.30pm).
