Neither can I, very annoying last wicket partnership and could prove costly.

Big win for us, hopefully this will see us kick on this season.

Backs against the wall already, Horton off the field after coping a nasty blow to the head. Doesn't bode well.

You've still got a good chance of a draw, probably need to bat for at least 2 and 1/2 sessions though?

Given the potential explosiveness of the Somerset batting we'd still need to be batting into the final session. Given how fragile our batting has been at times, that doesn't seem garenteed by any stretch of the imagination.

Yeah, I meant another 2 and a half sessions so need to be batting into the final session. Probably need the experienced batsmen to do most of the work.

Must have been a bad blow to the year for him not to come back in after the first wicket this morning.

An excellent performance and brave by Horton. Looked ominous for you when quick wickets went down in the afternoon.

Yes, Horton played a classic knock. It will be interesting to see how many players we dump at the end of the season.

Fred gets named in the squad, game is washed out. Seems like an omen.
