Somerset v Kent - Twenty20 Cup SF Match - Trent Bridge
2nd
Innings

3rd Over

Kent make a steady start, are well above the required runrate and dont seem to be taking many risks. But with the score on 26, Fulton is trapped LBW.

w1pu1.jpg


8th Over

Rob Key decides to up the pace a bit in the 8th over and smashes a couple of sixes, Francis gets his second wicket though when his brother takes the catch.

w2ng8.jpg


9th Over

Stupidly Jones is runout in the next over coming back for a second run. Kent dont need to take risks like that.

w3tc2.jpg


11th Over

Martin van Jaarsveld does nothing to justify his place in the squad with the bat once again.

w4sr7.jpg


13th Over

The Kent players certainly have butterfiles in their stomach and are making pretty hard work of such a low target. Bravo is next to go.

Wahey! Kent in the finals, they made a bit of a meal of a small total though.

They got there in the end though, and that's the main thing.

5th Over

Gloucestershire certainly aren't hanging around but Bravo strikes again, removing Marshall for just 1 run.

w2jy0.jpg


Windows replaces Marshall and if he bats like Spearman and Harvey he'll get a huge total, maybe 95 or 98.

Unfortunatley for him Bravo has other plans and Windows is out for 7.

w3dc5.jpg


6th Over

Hodnett is next to fall as Gloucestershire continue to push hard for runs.

w4pj7.jpg


8th Over

Harvey is still causing the Kent bowlers much trouble and he reaches his half century.

harvey50uz7.jpg


But he doesn't get any further.

w5ri7.jpg
