SOM Team News
Somerset will have been keen to play against Sussex Sharks on Friday but the rain may have been a blessing in disguise as Sussex have been such a strong side in the competition. Cidermen will fancy their chances of making it two wins on the bounce in this match.
SOM Key Players
- Tom Banton- the young opener has made only 28 runs in three T20 Blast innings but Somerset will stick with him until his form returns. There is an incredibly talented player there and it is only a matter of time.
- Lewis Gregory- Somerset’s captain has played 8 T20Is for England and is an excellent contributor with bat and ball. He is yet to put in a big performance this campaign.
- Marchant de Lange- the former South Africa international has been a real threat with the ball in the T20 Blast this year and taken 7 wickets.
SOM Team Form
One win in the T20 Blast does not equal a turn around in form but it was a win against a team at the top end of the group. A win against Glamorgan will take them up the table.
Somerset Predicted Playing 11
Tom Banton (wk), James Hildreth, Will Smeed, Tom Abell, Lewis Goldsworthy, Lewis Gregory (c) , Craig Overton, Ben Green, Marchant de Lange, Josh Davey, Max Waller
Glamorgan Team News & Playing 11
GLA Team News
The South-Wales side are one of the few counties to have still never reached a T20 Blast Final. Their win over Middlesex on Friday should give them confidence to stick with the same players and produce some more impressive results.
GLA Key Players
- Colin Ingram- the former South Africa top order batsman has struggled to produce runs in this season’s T20 Blast. However his 75 against Middlesex showed that he still has a huge amount to offer.
- Marnus Labuschagne- Australia’s talented middle order batsman is averaging 65.25 in this year’s competition in spite of scores of 13 and 22 in his last two innings.
- Dan Douthwaite- the all-rounder has only produced with the ball this season but is fast becoming Glamorgan’s go to bowler in crucial moments.
GLA Team Form
Two wins and two defeats in the T20 Blast show Glamorgan are an inconsistent side. If Ingram and Labuschagne can be backed up then they could kick on in the tournament.
Glamorgan Predicted Playing 11
David Lloyd (c) , Nick Selman, Marnus Labuschagne, Colin Ingram, Tom Cullen (wk), Kiran Carlson, Callum Taylor, Dan Douthwaite, Ruaidhri Smith, Timm van der Gugten, Andrew Salter
