Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

*pokes head out from behind sofa* I rather enjoyed it :-)

150 is always competitive on Finals day, so 140 odd was always more in the game than the commentators let on. They also said Somerset had changed their tactics by bwling Overton through. Er, no. That's been the plan throughout, either 3 or 4 overs from him first up.

What I would say is, 15 wins from 17 games, remarkable consistency.

Only the 9th major honour in Somerset's history., and only the 4th in the last 40 years (since Richards, Garner, Botham era). You'll forgive my raised glass.

Somerset bowled and, circumstance induced howlers aside, fielded beautifully. If I was a neutral I’d be delighted they won.

The best team on the day, over two games, won.

Heading to Southampton soon for the ODI. Hoping that’s as good as Wednesdays game, but with better England fielding.

Have a top day, Dave. It's been a fascinating series as England women have started believing more and more.
