No other team in either the South Group or the North Group has played five and won five like Somerset have managed so far in the competition. They were excellent in the group stage last year and have been unstoppable so far this year.
Tom Banton has been in excellent form for Somerset at the top of the order but he was forced to retire hurt with a suspected side strain when on 27 runs from 18 balls against Middlesex on Friday. Without him in the side for this game. We expect Tom Kohler-Cadmore to move up to open.
Middlesex were bowled out from 18.4 overs in the last game with Ben Green (4-20) and Josh Davey (3-34) the chief wicket takers. Craig Overton went wicketless but he had the best economy rate as his four overs conceded only 15 runs.
Somerset are not just winning game but heavily defeating the opposition. They thrashed Middlesex by 9 wickets on Friday evening.

After getting their 2023 T20 Blast campaign off to a late but winning start against Gloucestershire and Sussex Sharks, Essex Eagles were well beaten by Hampshire Hawks on Friday with a losing margin of 118 runs.They are in sixth place but only two points from second place.
Chasing 215 to win in front of their home fans on Friday night, the Essex Eagles batting line-up came up well short as they were bowled out for 96 inside 14.1 overs. Adam Rossington, Dan Lawrence and Paul Walter were the only three players to hit double figure scores.
Against an attacking Hampshire Hawks batting line-up, it was only Australian Daniel Sams who kept the run-rate down below 10 runs an over on Friday evening. He also picked up 3 wickets and, alongside Simon Harmer who took 3-43, we expect the pair to be Essex Eagles’ top wicket takers.
Essex Eagles impressed with their first two victories but they were well beaten by Hampshire Hawks ahead of this game.
Adam Rossington (wk), Daniel Lawrence, Robin Das, Matthew Critchley, Paul Walter, Feroze Khushi, Tom Westley, Daniel Sams, Simon Harmer (c), Aron Nijjar, Sam Cook
No team has been able to put a stop to Somerset’s winning run as yet in this tournament and, even without Tom Banton at the top of the order, they will still take some stopping. Essex Eagles are likely to put in a much better performance after being thrashed by Hampshire Hawks but we are not backing them to win. Somerset are in excellent form and we are backing them to win this match.
