As a Somerset fan I would prefer to see Butler batting at 6. I think his keeping is OK for limited overs cricket.

Bell, Morgan and Bressie all out to soft dismissals sort of took the wind out of the sails. Still think 288 is a decent score.

The rope is a long way back (80m?) most of the way round which means less boundaries and more 2's and 3's. I'm not certain the likes of Pollard will be keen to push the ball into the gaps and press for 3.

What a cowardly act by england to move the boundries further back than normal because they are scared of our batting monsters!! :laugh: , and of course they produce a road to make Bell look good and negate our most effective bowler in this formate (Narine) , i guess with them being at home they are well within their rights to do it but my god it just stinks of desperation imo :unsure: ,

Without Gayle to give us a good base to start from this is gonna be tough, we chased quite well against Australia and with England having mainy pace bowlers it may suit our big hitters having the ball come onto the bat but no doubt it's gonna be tough.

Rampaul was poor and yet again Sammy didn't bowl his full overs in an effort to protect his average again!! 8-) , he better do something useful with the bat.
