Changes likely for Surrey game: Johnson to have fitness test

Somerset coach Kevin Shine confirmed that it was likely that he would take a squad of 12 to The Oval on Wednesday for the four day CricInfo Championship match against Surrey.

The final selection would be down to Jamie Cox the captain, and would depend upon the fitness tests that Richard Johnson is undergoing over the next two days.

It was likely to be a "different" selection from the Leicestershire game and the final team on the day could depend upon whether a new or used pitch was used for the match.

Despite missing Saqlain Mushtaq and their England players Surrey are still able to field a strong side and will provide a stern test for the Cidermen.
