Funny from the Somerset media team

Well as it stands we are County T20 champions. Only Birmingham can match us if they win tonight and big on Sunday and we lose big to Kent.

And that’s that, there’s no knockout or final…….is there?

Pleasing to shut these commentaries up.

SurRey ArE ThE beST EvER.    **** off. 

To be fair to Monty he’s said a couple times we are the best T20 side in the country. The other bloke is Mr Surrey

Blimey just catching back up with this thread 

Why are so many so negative through the night, we are miles ahead of 99% of the other sides 

Anyone know who the commentary duo are? 

They must have said 50 times that Surrey can bat through all 11 :laugh:

Monty Panesar and Mark Church I believe 

When in doubt bring on Greeners

Could do with a wicket.

This Overton bloke is doing my nut in

Who is the commentator that keeps praising Lammonby?

Pretty sure it’s Mark Church, he’s the usual Surrey guy.

Useful first over in a Somerset shirt. 2 for 3 

Sodhi is my new hero!!

Henry is so good.  Boy we going to miss him. 

One of best all format overseas signings we’ve had for years.

I know we all like to moan about the commentators but I quite like Monty Panesar, very knowledgeable about county cricket.

Should have been 1 for 1 off Craig’s first but fielding doesn’t look easy tonight 

Well we’d have taken that before the start. No idea whatsoever if it’s enough.

Surrey have got so many bowlers that bat they can play two, Overton and Tom Curran just as batsman

Just after the commentator said nobody would try that shot against Narine :laugh:

I don't believe it's the conditions, it's just errors 

I wish this commentary team would stop saying we don't bat all the way through 

 

Yes, although we’ve got injuries we’ve still got Craig, Davey and Henners who can all clear the ropes. 

Clever bowler Narine…..but he has played over 500 t20 matches

I dont think I’ve ever seen a reverse hit in front of the wicket go as far as Banton’s just did, incredible.

Surrey sloppy in the field which suggests it’s a bit wet and slippy

Yet another 60 plus from the power play. Good start but a very long way to go against a Surrey side capable of chasing well over 200

I didn't want to post it, but with Wood available for the next Test, Jimmy would be the one to drop out for me.

Yeah we’re not blessed with fast bowlers in their prime and injury free but I’m a big fan of Wood. If only he could have had a bowl at Durham recently to get some overs in him

I know people have been predicting Jimmy’s imminent retirement for years but this really does feel like we’re seeing his final few weeks as an England player.

Conditions couldn’t really be much better and even though he’s bowled ok he’s still wicket less.

Has he got one more fivefer in him first though?

Less said about the batting the better…

However, we’ve bowled well so far today but just not finding the nicks at the moment.

Frustrating.

As the Bristol City fan Simon Mann just said on TMS, if we were leading by 80 odd the Aussies would be nicking everything but when you’ve had a disastrous morning and are trailing by a 100 they’re playing and missing all these good balls.

Anderson and Broad with zero luck so far.

Clever from England to get out and give them a tricky 20 mins before lunch

I was expecting Stokes to declare once Robinson was out.

Stokes must be a concern if he’s barely going to bowl and struggling for runs. 

Australia look better in almost every department at the moment. Incredible we’ve been head to head with them up until this morning.
