In the absence of any Second XI cricket and the One Day Cup competition, the Bob Willis Trophy reports have been expanded to include a write up for each day’s play as well as the full scorecards. Sadly all fixtures were played behind closed doors so hopefully these extended reports will enable readers to get the feeling of actually being at the game! In addition, the Somerset Women’s team reports plus the Boys and Girls Pathway write ups are included in the first half of the book as they now come under the remit of Somerset CCC rather than the Somerset Cricket Board.

He has simply been since the greatest of all, Don Bradman. the difference.

EDGBASTON, DAY 1 JOE ROOT, the England captain, late 20s, blue-eyed and baby- faced, tosses a COIN in the air. His counterpart, TIM PAINE, mid-30s, a man who has never seen a hand he doesn’t want to shake, calls. TIM PAINE As Winston Churchill once said, ‘Heads’! CUT TO: The COIN landing on the ground. It is a HEAD! TIM PAINE We’ll have a bat. FADE TO: MONTAGE of early wickets falling as Kenny Loggins’ ‘Danger Zone’ plays. STUART BROAD, early 30s, tall, funny, the kind of bowler who loves to not pitch it up, is PITCHING IT UP, and being rewarded with wickets. UMPIRE WILSON and UMPIRE DAR, meanwhile, comically shake their heads at obvious wickets and raise their respective fingers for shouts that are definitely not out. At the end of a CHRIS WOAKES over, they bump into one another and fall down. Eventually, TIM PAINE joins STEVE SMITH, 30, eccentric, fidgety, the best batsman in the world but doesn’t know it, at the crease. TIM PAINE (waving to crowd) Hello… (checks notes) Edgbaston! I’ve just arrived at the crease and boy, I gotta say… (pauses for effect) you guys really ARE one of the most intimidating grounds in the world.

Nicolls. Later acquiring other famous brands including Wainwrights and Shaw & Shrewsbury, Gray-Nicolls became the much larger company which we know today. During the 1950s and 60s the brand went from strength to strength, and at one stage each of the captains from the five test playing countries; Ted Dexter, Richie Benaud, Frank Worrell, John Reid, Trevor Goddard were using a Gray-Nicolls bat. The 1970s saw Gray-Nicolls become the first bat manufacturer to introduce coloured labels as well as their iconic, trend-setting red flash. In 1974 the company broke new ground with the introduction of the revolutionary Scoop bat. With the company growing exponentially and attracting global appeal, Gray-Nicolls also opened a new factory in Melbourne.
