We arguably have the best batting line-up in the competition and we're playing on arguably the best batting wicket in the competition.

We should be able to chase down 200, let alone something like 175.

[SaintPowelly]

Is that a translation for "We have Maxwell" ??

[SaintPowelly]

Kieswetter gone for 57, hope that slows them down, still need Trego though

[st_brendy]

Coles has gone for less than 20 from his 4 at Taunton. That is brilliant.

Didn't concede a single boundary.

Oh, cricinfo decided to update itself! 22 I think he went for.

Matt Coles

4-0-22-0 ...and hes the guy that usually goes for over 9s

[st_brendy]

I'm quite desperate to find a way to get him back into team (when Briggs is available), but I really don't know who to drop. Not if Jimmy continues to produce the innings he did against Kent.

[SaintPowelly]

Abbotts ability to deliver yorkers will be the difference between 175 and 200 tonight.

[st_brendy]

And he does it again

[SaintPowelly]

Abbott bowls Trego

76 and out, after 96* last time from pete

[SaintPowelly]

Dragging it back here

[SaintPowelly]

Somerset commentators think 180 would be enough.

Two runs out.

It was 'just' a matter of managing to remove Trego and Kieswetter. With Myburgh wasted right down the order, and Tresco injured, it always looked like Somerset would be relying on those two. And we always had Coles, Abbott and Wood to back in place of Ervine, Smith and Vince.

[SaintPowelly]

Vince gone 1st ball to Trego.

[SaintPowelly]

Somerset had their best batsman and biggest hitter at 3, why don't we ??
