Another round of the SE T20 today, to be played at Moseley CC.

Expect to see some new faces in the squad, as the T20 specialists will be with the first team.

Lamb and Sibley opening. Van Vollenhoven in the side again. We're batting first.

Did anyone ever find out what happened to Van Vollenhoven? Had a great knock then disappeared.

Benjamin out cheaply today as well, 2 off 4.

Interesting to see Lamb opening. If Malan doesn’t score today, is he the next option whilst Hose is injured?

Matt Lamb 85 NO off 59 balls. Got to be a good candidate for Hose's place, instead of Malan?

Another great win for us in the 2nd's T20. I think that's 8 wins from 8 games. 2 games left - I guess a Semi Final place is already booked.

As I said, Lamb 85 NO; others in double figures, were Sibley (26 off 14 balls), van Vollenhoven (18 off 11) and Norwell (23 off 19). We made 176 for 6.

We bowled Somerset out for 90 (in 17 overs). Wicket takers were OHD (2 for 7), Johal (3 for 6 - at last, decent figures this season), Bethell (2 for 6), van Vollenhoven (1 for 22) and Matty L (1 for 4 with his new 'leggies' !).

Apparently, van Vollenhoven has not been playing any cricket (for us or anybody else !), since his last game in mid May, but taking (and revising for !) exams. They're over now and I guess he'll be a regular in the 2nd's for a while. He certainly is justifying that selection - and promises much for the future (hopefully with us !).

Benjamin didn't do anything with the bat today (though has got some decent scores in recent games), but took 3 catches behind, to add to some fine performances behind the stumps, so he too is justifying a few more games to see if he's got it for backup Keeper.
