SOM vs DER Dream11 Team Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and pitch report for Royal London One Day Cup
Somerset and Derbyshire will lock horns in a Group B match at the Royal London One Day Cup at the Cooper Associates County Ground in Taunton on Sunday.
Defending champions Somerset will enter the tournament with high expectations from all corners of the cricketing world. They have a good blend of young and experienced players in their squad and will look forward to doing well in all three departments to start the competition on a high.
Meanwhile, Derbyshire’s poor performance with the ball resulted in them losing to Leicestershire in their tournament opener. Derbyshire posted 275/7 in 20 overs thanks to captain B Godleman’s century. However, the bowlers failed to live up to expectations and the opposition needed just 46.3 overs to chase down the total.
Somerset will enter the contest as strong favorites.

Pitch report
Taunton recently hosted a few T20 Blast games. Batsmen and pacers equally enjoyed the conditions at the venue. Initially, there will be some swing for fast bowlers and batsmen will have to spend some time at the crease before offering shots.
250-280 should be a par score on this sporting wicket, with teams batting first having a good win record.
