Anderson thanks fans for supporting the Second Eleven final

At the end of the Second Eleven Final between Somerset and Surrey at The County Ground today, second eleven coach Julian Wyatt, who is taking time off from cricket to travel was presented with a round the world air ticket by Somerset Chairman Richard Parsons, in recognition for his services to cricket in the county.

The Chief Executive Peter Anderson personally thanked the crowd of over a thousand for their attendance. Speaking over the public address system Mr Anderson said, "Thank you all very much indeed for coming along today, and for the level of support you have given to the match. You've been a credit to the club."

Regarding the match the Chief Executive told me, "This has been a good learning for the youngsters, who didn't enjoy being on the losing end. They have to learn to bowl a tight line and length when the pressure is on, which they didn't do today."
