Lancashire vs Somerset Predictions
Lancashire’s top-order has struggled to fire as a unit this season. Somerset have a more settled top-order, which is why I am backing them to make it through to the final.
- Somerset’s Tom Abell scored 51 off 31 balls against the Bears.
- Somerset’s Sean Dickson scored 71 off 26 balls against the Bears.
- Lancashire’s Liam Livingstone has scored 45* & 85* in his last 5 innings.
- Lancashire’s Ashton Turner has scored 20, 28*, 22 & 22 in his last 5 innings.
Head-to-Head
Somerset have won two and lost none of their three matches against Lancashire in the T20 Blast. The other match was rained-off.
Lancashire Form
Lancashire bounced back from defeat at Notts to beat Kent by three wickets in their T20 Blast quarter-final.
Lancashire restricted Kent to 153 off their 20 overs. Luke Wood (3/29) was the pick of the Lancashire bowlers.
Liam Livingstone (85* off 45) was the only Lancashire bowler to score above 28 as they pulled off a three-wicket win with nine balls to spare.
Lancashire Team News
There are no injury reports from the Lancashire squad, but they will be missing stars Phil Salt and Luke Wood on international duty.
Somerset Form
Somerset made it four wins from their last five matches when they beat the Bears by four wickets.
Somerset’s attack all played their part to restrict the Bears to 190/6 on a good batting track. Ben Green (2/30) was the pick of the Somerset bowlers.
Tom Abell (51 off 31) and Sean Dickson (71 off 26) played a key role in Somerset clinching a thrilling four-wicket win with one ball to spare.
Somerset Team News
Somerset are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team. They are also unaffected by international call-ups, so they look good to make a third consecutive T20 Blast final.
Verdict
I am backing Somerset to win. I am also backing Tom Abell to top score for Somerset.
Liam Livingstone is a good bet to top score for the Lancashire.
