Second XI Championship: Yorkshire v Somerset – Day One
DAY ONE
Somerset take on Yorkshire in the Second XI County Championship at Taunton Vale Sports Club this week.
Yorkshire won the toss and elected to bat.
James Theedom made an early breakthrough when he trapped Will Luxton lbw with just 19 on the board.
Noah Kelly and Jawad Akhtar took the visitors past 50 but the latter fell lbw to Zack Vukusic at 54 for two.
Kelly and Harry Duke took Yorkshire to lunch on 117 without further loss.
The third wicket pair continued to amass runs and when a thunder storm sent the players to the safety of the pavilion the scoreboard was showing 180 for two.
Unfortunately, the severity of the storm meant that no further play was possible.
Somerset have named the following squad: Bertie Michael, Bryce Street, Josh Thomas, Will Smeed*, Kian Roberts, Ben Church†, Theo Lamey, Oscar Coleman, Zach Vukusic, James Theedom, Joe Heywood, Harvey Richards.
