Post by Donny »

Too many matches to cover these in detail. I'll post, if there's a match or matches with particularly meritorious, or otherwise remarkable performance/s.

Somerset 180 all out, against Hampshire. James Hildreth scored 87 and Keith Barker took 3/33.

Hampshire 0/109. Joe Weatherley is 65*.

Only a few Aussies playing in County, this year. Sids is in this game, for Somerset.
