As a teenager, he captained Gwent and Wales before signing a development contract with the Welsh County side.

Watkins made his debut in 2005 and contributed with both the bat and the ball during 2006, when he was consistently in the first XI.

Watkins also holds the record by a Glamorgan outfielder for holding the most catches in a match: he caught seven in a County Championship match against Kent County Cricket Club.^{[citation needed]}.

In 2009 he set a new Glamorgan record for Twenty20 cricket bowling with 5/16 against Gloucestershire, but was released by the side after the 2009 season.^{[citation needed]}
