-30 points and counting...

 

Fabulous! Just incredible batting by Gregory.

That’s only the second century by a Somerset batsman this season too.

 

Well deserved ton but he should never have been allowed that many.

 

Don’t worry, Glos are getting some tap at Leicester. You guys can still overtake them.

 

What a magnificent knock by Lewis Gregory.

338-7

 

Well played Gregory.....at last some joy for Abbott.

 

The Marchant of Menace smites the ball.

 

4 points!

 

360 all out.

Time for 4 or 5 wickets this evening then...

 

That's at least 200 more than they should've had, very poor from Hants but credit to the counter attack from Somerset.

 

I’ve lost count of the number of times in the last few seasons our lower order have pulled off something like that.

 

But with so many missed chances in the field?

 

True, but several dropped catches on the same player IIRC. You can only get someone out once!

 

The one potential saving grace for Hants is the short boundary so runs should come fairly easily once batsmen get in.

 

Bad light. Can't see any more play today now.

 

Good, there was no advantage for us batting tonight.

 

In the test , Robinson. Took 4 wickets .
Good job , esp considering the pressure he is under !

 

Quiet on here today, I thought there would have been a lot of discussion about how well dropping Weatherly had worked!

 

Vince and Northeast have thankfully made it through to lunch. I think one of them simply has to make a century. Now the ball is getting softer and the sun is out, batting conditions shouldn't be too hard. Next session crucial.

 

We need Northeast out asap. Good 50 from him, but enough’s enough.
