T20

County Ground in Taunton

Somerset will take on Gloucestershire in the South Group match of the T20 Blast 2024 at The Cooper Associates County Ground, Taunton on Sunday, June 7. The match is scheduled to start from 7:00 PM IST.

Somerset vs Gloucestershire Chance of Winning

Gloucestershire have bounced back in the tournament after losing three of their first four matches, but beating Somerset for the second time in the season could prove to be difficult.

Gloucestershire's 3-match winning run was halted by Kent in their rain-marred last game. The break in momentum just before the match against third-placed Somerset isn't good news. On the other hand, Somerset have lost just three of their first nine matches. They lost their second-last match against Gloucestershire - their opponent also on Sunday, but scored 188 runs for the loss of four wickets only.

The likes of Tom Banton, Will Smeed, Ben Green, Jack Leach and Riley Meredith feature in the Somerset line-up and it won't be easy once again for Gloucestershire to contain this start-studded unit. Somerset failed to defend 189 last time, but the very capable bowlers of Somerset must have learnt their lesson and would come with a plan.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Somerset

Somerset are very likely to beat Gloucestershire in their upcoming match. The third-placed side will look to avenge their defeat against fifth-placed Gloucestershire after losing to them on June 21.

Somerset have genuine white-ball stars in Tom Banton, Will Smeed and Riley Meredith in their unit which is likely to post a high total once again, and their bowlers are expected to be well-prepared Gloucestershire to not repeat the mistakes due to which they failed to defend 189 against them.

Also, Gloucestershire batters are yet to show consistency. They have posted totals on the board in their last few matches but the contribution from individual batters in top six haven't been consistent. Gloucestershire have also lost their momentum after losing their last match against Kent. Somerset also have the psychological advantage of winning four of their last five matches against Gloucestershire.
