15.1 to BGF Green, And delivers immediately! Off-cutter, registering at 69mph, flummoxes Green who can only skew a leading edge to backward point. 105/6 15.2 to C Overton, Rinse and repeat! Another slower ball, another dolly of a catch into the offside ring! This time it's cover as this cutter stops in the pitch and loops up off Overton's forward lunge. A 32nd wicket of the season for Payne, who is now on at hat-trick!. 105/7 18.5 to L Gregory, Gone! Gregory smokes a flat drive to long on! Did he need to do that? He struck it firmly enough but it flew out to Ollie Price at long off. Payne's got his third with seven deliveries to go.... 123/9 | ||||||||||

16.6 to RE van der Merwe, Brilliant catch from Bracey! Hard length into the deck, Roelof tries to flap it late through backward point and gets an edge that has Bracey sticking out a hand to his right when heading left and just clutching on!. 114/8 19.4 to JT Ball, That's all she wrote! Ball falls to clear Price, who is now up in the circle at mid off and Somerset are all out for 124 with two balls to spare. Gloucestershire, you require 125 to win your first T20 Blast.... 124/10 | ||||||||||

3.1 to WCF Smeed, Slashed to backward point! Gloucestershire hit back at the perfect moment! Taylor with his first ball, and his fourth wicket of the day. Smeed freed his arms but the ball was too close to his body, on the full length, a smart take in front of the face. 28/1 3.6 to T Kohler-Cadmore, checked drive, done in by the slower ball! TKC was through his shot far too soon, and tried to stop his bat-swing almost dead, but he knew immediately he was stuffed. But the ball scooped straight up in the air, and Tom Price made a meal of his take on the edge of the cover ring, but clung on in his fingertips, inches from the ground!. 33/2 5.6 to JEK Rew, punched on the up, Bancroft bags the catch! Taylor has three in the innings, six for the day, but this is all about the Aussie, at short cover, flinging himself to his right to snaffle the offering at full stretch, it wasn't travelling fast, but it needed to be judged. Gloucestershire are making these conditions talk, and three wickets in the powerplay tends to augur well for any team!. 41/3 | ||||||||||
| 1 | 0 | 7 | 1 | 7.00 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
6.2 to SR Dickson, reverse-sweep, Gloucestershire are on the march now! Sean Dickson, the hero of the semi-final, tries to attack the off-stump line, but he's picked the wrong ball to attack! This one grips and turns past his intentions. Real trouble now for the defending champions. 42/4 | ||||||||||

12.4 to TB Abell, Abell... what have you done?! It looks a gorgeous checked drive down the ground, holding the pose, but it nestles straight in the hands of Cameron Bancroft at long on! Not sure why he hasn't gone through the shot because the connection looked and sounded crisp. A handy partnership ends on 44. 86/5 | ||||||||||

13.1 to CT Bancroft, The first wicket falls, but it's too little too late... Davey into the pitch, the ball sits up and Bancroft slaps it straight down the throat of deep square leg. Still no 10-wicket winner in a Blast final, then. I'll tell the kids.... 112/1 | ||||||||||
