    I truly hope that they both go on to have storming World Cups as both have been messed about enough by England in the past.

    It would be strange if the best domestic List A team in the country had no representatives for England at the WC I suppose.

    Well it doesn’t sound like a Taunton Bunsen, Craig Overton got 5-31 and Leach only bowled 7 overs, although he did get 2 wickets.

    I was going to say wickets today were going to be hard to get and Barker gets one!

    Not the case at Taunton, it must be swinging round corners there!

    Somerset 68-5, lead by 142.

    Liam Norwell has now taken 6-24 in 8 overs, Som 78-7 <yikes>

    Looks like we might get a result today as SA suggested!

    Somerset 164 ao, Craig Overton top-scores with 36, Liam Norwell 12.5-3-41-7.

    Warwickshire need 239 to win, which I’m going to stick my neck out and say is unlikely. That’s jinxed it!

    Kevan James on the Hants commentary reckons it will be a great effort if they get within 50 runs of the target.

    Warwicks going at 5 an over on 25/1....looks like they are not going to die wondering and are going to play their shots.

    And there goes the second wicket...

    They won't get to 150 IMO. The pitch is obviously not ideal for batting.

    You may be right, but as I said earlier, most of the wickets have gone to fast-medium bowlers who may have found some swing.

    H 9 - 2 Soames out, not a great start.
