I don't think following on was ever the likely tactic, Greppers (have you seen us bat). More likely, post a competitive total, bowl you out 50 cheaper, score another 125 and try to win that way!

203 all out. Good grief.

Work to do to avoid the follow-on...

So Cricinfo are hinting that Somerset are going to pull this out of the bag. Given that on Saturday morning they confidently predicted us getting thrashed by Derbyshire at tip'n'run I find this reassuring.

Meanwhile, dullest headline of the year? From the current The Cricketer:

Robin Smith picks Allan Lamb as his favourite cricketer

There’s a plausible nightmare scenario that runs thus: weather fine tomorrow. We get skittled out for something like 120 - not impossible because it’s a pig of a pitch that’s been set up for a result. Somerset forfeit their second innings leaving us, say, 80 runs needed for the win. That could make for a very uncomfortable afternoon (and a dent in my Flexi balance because I’d take the afternoon off).
