Two crucial evenings for Somerset, tonight in Bristol and tomorrow in Taunton. Win them both and the treble is still on !
Now 35 0ff 3 overs.Somerset need 45 to win off the last 4 overs with six wickets down ! Gulp !
Yes very important to win tomorrow against the woeful Welsh. The defeat tonight was a particular blow as Glos could be the team that edges the Cidermen out of a QF slot.Glos win by 25 runs. The cidermen went down swinging the willow, but an Englandesque collapse was their undoing. Chasing 189, they were well placed at 90-1 after 9.3 overs, but then lost 5 wickets in the next 24 balls, for just 21 runs, leaving the lower order with a Herculean task. Need to bounce back against Glam tomorrow evening.
This has the whiff of a scandal. The timing is somewhat puzzling given the success on the field at present, 50 overs Champions, handily placed for the County Championship, and still in with a shout for the 20/20 title. A potential treble winning season and you sack the Chief Exec with a month to go ? Surely something murky going on beneath the surface ? Have you heard any rumours Mr Hound ?Somerset have sacked their Chief Exec.
Maybe they are just lousy at appointing their administrative staff, Wolfie also springs horribly to mind ?...Somerset part company with chief executive Andrew Cornish
The club are left looking for a fourth chief executive in four years after Cornish's departurewww.espncricinfo.com
