Pitch Report

A high-scoring game is on the cards with there being little room for error for the bowlers. Although the new ball should do a bit, the batters will enjoy the carry and bounce off the surface. There could be some turn available for the spinners in the middle overs, making for a good contest between the bat and ball. Both teams will prefer chasing upon winning the toss, with 170 being a good total at the venue.


Today’s SOM vs HAM Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Ben McDermott: Ben McDermott has blown hot and cold in the T20 Blast, scoring 256 runs in 10 matches. He has complimented James Vince perfectly in the top order, taking on the bowlers in the powerplay phase. Given his ability against both pace and spin, McDermott is a good addition to your SOM vs HAM Dream11 fantasy team.

Batter

Will Smeed: Will Smeed is another promising batter who has struggled for consistency in the T20 Blast this season. The Somerset opener has 230 runs to his name, but is due for a big performance at the top of the order. Like McDermott, Smeed is a fine player of both pace and spin, holding him in good stead ahead of this much-awaited game.

All-rounder

Liam Dawson: Liam Dawson has been brilliant with the ball, picking up 12 wickets in the T20 Blast this season. His economy rate of 6.82 also stands out as the left-arm spinner generally operates in the powerplay overs. With Dawson being used as a floater in the batting unit, he is one to watch out for in this game.

Bowler

Peter Siddle: Peter Siddle had a decent outing against Surrey, picking up three wickets, but couldn't see his side across the finish line. The Aussie veteran has led the Somerset attack well, using his experience and variations to good effect. Given the wicket-taking form that he is in, Siddle is a must-have in your SOM vs HAM Dream11 fantasy team.
