Let's have a look at both the teams:
Somerset:
Somerset have been average in this tournament and have fought very hard to get this far, into the semi finals. Now in Somerset's last game, which was against Nottinghamshire, Notts won the toss and chose to bat first. Now Notts were in complete control of the game, at 135/4, when Samit Patel left, Somerset had a chance to restrict Notts less than 150, but a late counter attack and a brilliant innings form Alex Hales, who scored 78, took Notts to 169, which was a really competitive score. Somerset started badly, losing Trescothick for 3 in the 3rd over. Then Trego and Kieswetter built after their early loss, but then Trego had to go for 22, and Somerset were 59/2. Then Hildreth and Kieswetter were the next to go, and Notts were fighting well, At this stage, Somerset were 106/4 in 15 overs. But then, you must have heard of the name, the West Indian all rounder, Kieron Pollard walked in and blasted an amazing 47 off 25 balls with support from Jos Buttler, who scored 34 off 14 balls, and Somerset pulled off an amazing victory, winning by 6 wickets in the end. Good luck Somerset!
Leicestershire:
They have been superb in this tournament, and they really got going when Razzaq made his debut earlier in this tournament, and blasted 60 odd off 30 balls, a great innings when you Given that he just arrived from Pakistan a day ago. In Leics last game, which was against Kent, they were absolutely superb, quite expensive with the ball, letting Kent reach 203 in 20 overs, Now everyone knew that Leics had no chance but the fighting spirit remained in the Leics dressing room. Leics got off to a great start but kept on losing wickets and got some boundaries in the end. Once Razzaq got out, after hitting 3 sixes, at 176/6, hopes were going down, but then, Paul Nixon, in his last match before retirement blasted 31 off 17 balls! Leics needed 2 off the last over, which was really easy, Wahab Riaz was the bowler, who bowled a superb delivery to deceive Paul Nixon, and got him bowled out. The next ball hurried for a boundary and Leics completed an amazing victory! Well thats all from Leics!
Ready for the final?
Leicestershire or Somerset?
