Somerset need to pray that Edgbaston prepare a flat track now for entertainment purposes. If Birmingham had qualified, they probably would have prepared a slower track. Now they're out for all intents and purposes I suspect they might want a run fest. Which will suit Somerset more than the other 3 teams. The other 3 teams would rather have some assistance for the spinners!
Hopefully you’re right. Would be good to have Overton back too, for his batting as well as his bowling.
Turns out I never needed to be worried about Brave's middle order, because we had this hidden down at no.10.
Glad we haven't got Somerset in the semis, they smashed us twice in the group stage. Mind you Sussex will be no pushover.
Looks like Ahmad and Bopara are the only two players at finals day who are due to leave for the CPL now. Given that it finishes only three days before finals day, and I think St Kitts is currently an amber list country, I wonder if they will still go - and if they do, will then be available for finals day?
I'm glad to have avoided Sussex and Kent. But it's a shame we've run into Somerset... Where are Glamorgan when you need them.
