The third quarter-final of the T20 Blast 2021 will see Somerset take on Lancashire at the Cooper Associates County Ground in Taunton on Thursday.

Match Details

SOM vs LAN, 3rd Quarter-final, T20 Blast 2021

Date and Time: 26th August 2021, 11:00 PM IST

Venue: The Cooper Associates County Ground, Taunton


Pitch Report

A high-scoring game beckons in Taunton with some help available for the bowlers as well. The pacers should get the new ball to swing around with the spinners likely to get the ball to skid as well. However, the dimensions of the ground go against the bowlers, making conditions favorable to the batters. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with anything over 165 being a great total at the venue.


Today’s SOM vs LAN Dream11 Match Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Tom Banton: Although Tom Banton didn't have the best of campaigns in The Hundred, he is still Somerset's best bet with the bat. Explosive at the top of the order, Banton is surely one to keep an eye out for in today's game.

Batsman

Alex Davies: Alex Davies has been one of Lancashire's best batsmen in recent years with his ability to keep the scoreboard ticking being a valuable asset. With Jos Buttler and Finn Allen unavailable, Davies will hold the key to the top order.

All-rounder

Lewis Gregory: Somerset captain Lewis Gregory shone in patches in the T20 Blast league phase with 12 wickets to his name. However, Gregory is due for a big knock with the bat, making him one to watch out for in this game.

Bowler

Matt Parkinson: Star leggie Matt Parkinson has enjoyed a fine summer with his bowling prowess garnering praise from all around the world. In the absence of Saqib Mahmood, Parkinson will be the go-to bowler for Lancashire and should ideally deliver some points in your SOM vs LAN Dream11 fantasy team.
