Wonder how things could have panned out if Somerset lost the toss and were put in to bowl.

Somerset would have done exactly the same if they were in that position

Ha, we get tagged with flat track/batter's paradise regarding the deck for years but play on some wickets that offer a bit to the bowler and they're 'sporty'. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't 

To be fair to us down in the South West, the results that have come about in 2/3 days haven't been necessarily down to the tracks being right turners. Some of the shot selection has been appalling from opposing players and Leach, Bess and Van Der Merwe have bowled exceptionally well to create the pressure that brings wickets.

County cricket > everything

Well, well, well!
First chance I've had to check what's happening all day and it's going down to the wire!

Yorkshire 3 down, needing to go at 7.5 an over.
Middlesex with their tails up are scenting blood in the water.

While all that's happening the Somerset boys will have the cider on ice and be keeping everything crossed for a draw.

One game going on with three potential champions, who said championship cricket was boring?

youre not damned both ways  flat tracks win nothing unless you have a magic spinner or quick that can blow everyone away. waqar younis and saqlian for surrey, Donald Warwickshire etc etc.Every County is trying to win the title.

ive replaced 'sporting' with 'unusual looking' wickets at Taunton this year. Youre in with a chance of winning the Championship for the first time since I can remember.

if Bresnan takes his shirt off has he got a vest that has a big S on it
