SOM Team News
The 2005 winners have a very strong group of white ball players and are well led by all-rounder Lewis Gregory. Craig Overton may be available for the XI but at this stage is doubtful with a side strain. The young opening batting partnership are great to watch in tandem.

Will Smeed - The teenage opener has hit 327 runs in the 2021 Vitality Blast including 29 fours and 11 sixes.
