    I was going to say Ponting was awful in the IPL but didn't want to tempt fate.

    Mixed feelings. Clearly Ponting is a massive wicket to take, but at the same time he was never going to smash us around. Look at his 60odd off 50odd vs Essex in their last match. Beautiful innings, but it arguably lost them the game. Just didn't score quick enough.

    Know what you mean. Would rather Davies was dismissed.

    That wicket was bigger than Ponting's. MASSIVE wicket to get Davies.

    A bit of a Jos Buttler special to get Somerset up to 199. Must win for them.

    As I said. Get the first Surrey wicket, and their innings turns 180 degrees.

    Still got four overs from the best spinner in county t20 cricket to come yet!

    Wood has stunning figures of 2-4 from 2 overs.

    Going to be tough to take him out of the attack here, but we need him at the end.

    Took 1-5 off 2 overs in our last match vs Middlesex. Slightly unlucky, though understandable, to not get a third. His bowling has really been a nice little asset this season.

    I'd love it if Vince took a wicket to shut Meaker up!

    I know he has been bowling in the Championship but missed that t20 game.
