Would stick with what we've been using while he's been on ODI/T20 duty. Not sure about Hildy thou, guessing he's out? Smeed to get a first class game? Would be hard to leave him out if he puts in a few more decent knocks and there's an open space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Would be giving John the aubergine reaction if it were possible, a) Banton is contracted, IPL wouldn't give a shit about Somerset if he asked to stay longer, b) potential bubble issue arriving late, c) someone explains in there 20% of the fee goes to ECB/Somerset it seems so we're pretty well compensated by him leaving and missing a game in a format he's not excelled in so far. Also an interesting thread involving Jamie Overton which explains his decision for leaving Somerset, having said that the guy he's discussing it with is a ****** anyway having known the guy, the ****** accused Jamie and Dom of being mercenaries without loyalty in the thread in the previous comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t remember the last time we played well there It almost feels like it isn't worth watching, but I'm just going to put up with seeing our 76 all out then I can concentrate on the football instead.

ralphindevon Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 How did we throw away that? Not having a go at Sale because he's young and very inexperienced...............

Two games Sale cost us the win in the tourney. Anyway best of luck to Glos, hope you can make it to finals day Thanks. Isn’t it great you can say that and I’d genuinely feel the same about Zummerset.

Admin phantom Posted September 21, 2020 Admin Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 THE MESSAGE BEHIND THE TROPHY While Somerset will go head-to-head with old rivals Essex on the pitch in search of honours at Lord’s this week, off the pitch the focus will be on one man – Bob Willis. The former England captain and Sky Sports pundit, who made over 90 Test appearances for his country in a playing career that spanned two decades, died from prostate cancer in December 2019. His death united the cricket world, with the ECB ensuring his legacy would live on in the sport by naming the first tournament of 2020 – and the first following the Covid-19 pandemic – the Bob Willis Trophy. His wife, Lauren Clark, has teamed up with leading men’s health charity Prostate Cancer UK to raise vital funds and to encourage men at greater risk of prostate cancer to visit their GP. “The fact that in the UK, prostate cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed of all the cancers goes to show why a lot more needs to be done into prostate cancer research,” she said. “Yes, it’s true that only men can get it; I can’t get it, but like too many wives, partners and families – I couldn’t have been more affected by it. I want to help people with prostate cancer. I want Bob to have a legacy.” One in eight men in the UK will be affected by prostate cancer at some point in their lives, with that statistic rising to one in four for black men. It is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK, reinforcing the need to take action. This month, Prostate Cancer UK launched a new online risk checker, where men and their families can find out if they are at increased risk of the disease and what steps they can take – and that extends to the Somerset cricketing family. The inaugural Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord’s will see branding from Prostate Cancer UK around the ground and on the stumps, with the winner’s trophy based on a drawing of Bob by Lauren. Royalties from Bob’s book, Bob Willis – A Cricketer and a Gentleman, have also come to the charity. Fans can text BOB to 70004 to donate £10 to Prostate Cancer UK or visit www.justgiving.com/fundraising/bobwillis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
