Should we have declared sooner yesterday?

Yes, definitely with the forecast, plus none of these teams bar maybe Worcester are capable of scoring bug runs against this Somerset attack.

Having said that we didn't have a stroke of luck today with the weather, that last cloud burst which cost us the game seemed to have blue sky all around the ground but not above it. Plus they could have easily eeked out a few mire overs if they really wanted to.

In 6 innings against us so far this season the opposition average 129, so we could easily have declared as soon as Jamie hit his ton, it's not as if we could lose, we still had s 2nd innings if needed. 

It's fine margins and we don't help ourselves sometimes......often

 

Or at least let him have a thrash for a few more overs and then declare, but why use two further overs for JD to bat.

Should have Leach and Bess back for that right? Would imagine 1 in for RvdM

The problem could be whether England release them from the "bubble" all the players are in?

Tom Banton and Lewis Gregory will be around England duty so guess it depends how early they are put in this bubble to impact their availability

No more tests at that point so surely they wouldn’t be in the bubble any more?

But any returning player can't just return to another teams dressing room, they would need to be put through the usual checks etc, it was three weeks before a game so no idea what the time scales are after

Didn't Craig come straight out of the bubble and play for Somerset?

Decent end to the day!

Weather looks grim for Monday & Tuesday though and I just don't see us wrapping it up tomorrow, the follow on target is only 20 odd away. Another frustrating match maybe?

150 follow on for CC isn't it? Still only 74 though
