MOTM: Lewis Gregory (Somerset)
- Arguably our best performance of the season so far, and these performances are definitely coming at the right end of the season!
- Brilliant batting from the top three along with lower order contributions
- Incredible spell from Gregory helped us skittle Hampshire for 160, still in favourable batting conditions
- Another very good second innings bowling performance after forcing them to follow on, an absolute thrashing of my home county :P
- Three wins from our last four games sees us pretty much safe from relegation now, one more win should guarantee safety for next season.
