@SomersetCCC After such a good start to the season this one is incredibly disappointing. Such a strong position for so long but failures to turn that into a dominant win. Still the same old issues shining through. Top order still a major concern with no big opening stands looking likely

184 ALL OUT: A disappointing afternoon as we're bowled out by Yorkshire. #YouAreSomerset #SOMvYOR

@empiremagazine This was a bad list when you revealed it last time and its still bad. Holdo at 47 above K-2SO? I can probably think of 47 droids that are better than Holdo.

@SomersetCCC Frustrating day but with the overs remaining this is still a very gettable target on a classic Taunton pitch that has become very docile. Should be no real issues for the batsmen except what they make themselves

CLOSE: Yorkshire end the day on 365/9, leading Somerset by 253 runs. #YouAreSomerset #SOMvYOR

@jacobwadswort18 @SomersetCCC They werent middle of middle plumb but they were still decent shouts. Not grumbling about the decisions really as they couldve gone either way but just the feeling that the umpires are going to continue turning down everything but the plumb ones which hurts against likes of Root

@Lord_Dusty @SomersetCCC Come on... None of them were plumb & there was doubt in them all.

66 🤝 66 That's lunch with Yorkshire 140/2, leading by 28 runs. Root 49* and Wharton 46* #SOMvYOR #YouAreSomerset

@NoContextCounty What about cheaper than a sausage roll bought at the Oval?

I dare a county to make blast tickets cheaper than a Gregg’s sausage roll

@NoContextCounty TEN actually Crane 99 / Williams 98 / Roooooot 96 / Carlson 95 / Clarke 94 / Duckett 93 / Price 93 / Elgar 92 / D'Oliveira 90 / Dickson 90

So far NINE players have been dismissed in the 90s this week (and one on 89) what is actually going on?

@DanKingdom96 Ironically the reason why he smashed bottom of Div 2 Leics around was because he was trying to force his way back into the England Ashes side with an 'important' innings. England ignored him, KP injured himself during the innings and thus he couldnt even run away back to the IPL

...a terrible Leicestershire team and he's based all of his opinions about the quality of county cricket on it since then We have plenty of evidence to know he shouldn't be taken seriously but as a high-profile figure we have to call out his crap unfortunately 3/3

Course, it doesn't fit Pietersen's silly little agenda but Bethell wouldn't have played in Derby because Derbyshire are in Division 2. However, Bethell would have played against, in April alone, Surrey and Sussex attacks featuring several internationals and highly rated... 1/3

@DanKingdom96 117 matches and still going! Apparently there is one team with a longer current streak than Som and its actually Glous! They havent lost with >30 first innings lead since game 4 of 2014! 164 matches ago Everyone else has done it at least once since 2022

@Lord_Dusty Great stat, cheers! There is hope then 👀

Overall a disappointing day so far but a very handy 10th wicket partnership from Alfie Ogborne and Jake Ball (helped by strange Hampshire tactics - why are you not trying to get no.10 Alfie Ogborne out?!) to give us a useful lead

@SomersetCCC @tauntonschool Tom 'more than' Abell! Took on the responsibility magnificently

THAT IS SENSATIONAL! 💯 Tom Abell with a magnificent century! Absolute nerves of steel to see us home in the 4th innings. #YouAreSomerset #HAMvSOM @tauntonschool

@SomersetCCC Can I sue for damages for my frayed nerves and gnawed nails?

OH MY WORD, WHAT A GAME OF CRICKET!!! 🔥 Somerset WIN by 2⃣ wickets. And breathe.... #HAMvSOM #YouAreSomerset

@SomersetCCC Alot on these two. Abells played fantastically but we've made this much harder than it needed to be with some very soft dismissals

🥪 LUNCH: We reach 223/6, needing 64 runs to win, with 4 wickets remaining. Abell: 65* Gregory: 11* How's everyone feeling? 😅 #HAMvSOM #YouAreSomerset

@SomersetCCC Shit gets wickets. Making this harder than it should be really. Cant afford any more soft wickets

Wicket. Smeed departs for 22. Caught by Lehmann. #HAMvSOM #YouAreSomerset

@jonboy_avfc @SomersetCCC COve and Cap'n Greggers were pretty key in a few chases last year but yeah really need these two to get the total down considerably first

@SomersetCCC 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Who else though? I suppose LG & Overton are capable, but I’d like to see the target below a hundred 💯 before they come to the wicket… #YouAreSomerset

CLOSE: What a partnership! Somerset end the day 139/3, needing 148 more runs tomorrow 🙏 🏏 James Rew 58* 🏏 Tom Abell 27* #HAMvSOM #YouAreSomerset

@SomersetCCC Can't say I'm surprised its those two but along with some proven chasers still in the shed the future looks brighter than it was an hour ago. Need a good start tomorrow

@NoContextCounty Somerset contributed two of those three really

Sonny Baker has the entire Somerset top three

GONE: Tom Lammonby is out pulling Baker, caught in the deep. Somerset 52/3 #HAMvSOM

@SomersetCCC Looks so good and yet another soft wicket. Completely unnecessary on this pitch

WICKET: Archie Vaughan is caught on the square-leg boundary attempting to pull Baker. Out for 30 and Somerset 33/1 #HAMvSOM

@SomersetCCC Decent effort. Should be a a chaseable target on a pitch with few issues though its just a shame we didn't get slightly better results in each of the previous 3 innings to make it a much more manageable target

GONE!! 5 for Lewis Gregory!!! What a performance this has been as he traps Baker LBW!! Hampshire 336 all out and Somerset will require 287 to win #HAMvSOM #YouAreSomerset

@EssexCricket Edge of thigh pad? x.com/NoContextCount…

😤 There it is! Sam Cook squares Alex Davies up and he edges it to Harmy at second slip! #WARvESS MatchZone ➡️ essexcricket.org.uk/matches/war-v-… Warwickshire 14-1 (trailing by 1 run) 🦅 #FlyLikeAnEagle
