  1. wicket

    WICKET

    Gregory c Mousley b Hannon-Dalby 9 (Somerset 156-5 v Bears)

    Safe hands Dan Mousley!

    Lewis Gregory is caught at long on.

    Ben Green comes in, with 35 needed from 15.

  2. 'One big over needed for Somerset'

    Somerset 152-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Anthony Gibson
    BBC Radio Somerset

    Somerset need one big over. One big over would put them right back in the hunt.

  3. Somerset 152-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Four for Sean Dickson as he top-edges a hook off Richard Gleeson and guides Somerset past 150.

    Dickson's looks like the key wicket for Bears now.

    Somerset need 39 from 18 balls.

  4. 'Twos are ok for the Bears'

    Somerset 146-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Clive Eakin
    BBC CWR Sport

    Even twos are ok for the Bears. It's boundaries they have to prevent.

  5. Somerset 146-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Richard Gleeson is back into the attack to try and increase the pressure on the batters.

    Just three runs off his first three balls.

  6. 'Somerset need to clear the ropes'

    Somerset 143-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Mark Davis
    Former Somerset seamer on BBC Radio Somerset

    A really good knock from Tom Abell, he's played really nicely but I don't think it's a bad thing now that we've got the likes of Lewis Gregory and Ben Green.

    We've got three people - two in the middle and one to come - that can clear the ropes.

    If Somerset are going to get home, then they're going to have to clear the ropes.

  7. Somerset 143-4 (target 191) v Bears

    Sean Dickson keeps things ticking over for Somerset with another six off Danny Briggs.

    They need 48 from 24 balls.

  8. wicket

    WICKET

    Abell c Yates b Briggs 51 (Somerset 134-4 v Bears)

    Is that another twist?

    Tom Abell launches Danny Briggs over the top but skies it too much and the catch is taken at long off.

    Somerset skipper Lewis Gregory is next in.

  9. Somerset 132-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Huge over for Somerset as Sean Dickson latches onto one back of a length from George Garton and dispatches it for a bigger six than the last one.

    They've taken 17 runs from it and the required rate is now below 12 again.

  10. 50 runs

    for Tom Abell

    Somerset 128-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Tom Abell brings up his half-century from 29 balls - and perhaps surprisingly it's his first of the tournament this season.

    But what a time to change that.

  11. 'Somerset have to hit the accelerator'

    Somerset 115-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Clive Eakin
    BBC CWR Sport

    Now is the time Somerset have to hit the accelerator but have they gone too late?

  12. Somerset 115-3 (target 191) v Bears

    The Taunton crowd are sounding more animated now after Sean Dickson gives Danny Briggs the charge and sends the ball high over the boundary.

    Otherwise, though, it's a good over from the Bears spinner - because 11 runs are not enough to prevent the required rate rising further. It's almost up to 13 now.

  13. 100 up for Somerset

    Somerset 104-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Great throw from George Garton in the deep restricts Sean Dickson to a single when he was looking for two.

    But Tom Abell makes up for it with a huge blow to send Ed Barnard's delivery over the midwicket fence and bring up the Somerset 100.

    Seven overs left, 87 needed.

  14. Somerset 93-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Jake Lintott is finally handed the ball for the first time tonight and Tom Abell, reaching down the pitch, sweeps the spinner for four.

    Sean Dickson follows suit with an almost identical shot and that makes it a good over for Somerset. They need 98 from eight overs now.

  15. 'Rew did time that nicely'

    Somerset 80-3 v Bears

    Anthony Gibson
    BBC Radio Somerset

    James Rew did time that nicely and got it away but he hit it into the wind and it was taken at deep backward square leg.

  16. Somerset 80-3 (target 191) v Bears

    Sean Dickson faces his first ball from George Garton and it's a short one, forcing the batter to sway as it passes through.

    Somerset need 111 from the last nine overs.

    Is this starting to swing in Bears' favour?

  17. wicket

    WICKET

    Rew c Barnard b Garton 11 (Somerset 80-3 v Bears)

    Three down as James Rew holes out to deep square leg...

    Rew had just taken a leg-side boundary off George Garton and goes for again with a wristy stroke, but doesn't get it quite right and Ed Barnard clings on.

  18. Somerset 73-2 (target 191) v Bears

    Halfway through the Somerset chase and they need almost 12 an over.

    James Rew's reverse sweep off Danny Briggs brought him a boundary but they weren't really able to build on that.

  19. 'Potentially important moment in this match'

    Somerset 64-2 (target 191) v Bears

    Mike Taylor
    BBC WM commentator

    That is quite a significant wicket.

    Potentially a very important moment in this match. It does feel like a game that does have quite a lot of it's drama left to unfold.

  20. Somerset 64-2 (target 191) v Bears

    Exactly the kind of over the Bears wanted, with new batter James Rew unable to get the ball away until the final delivery of the over, which brings him a single.

    No wicket maiden for Olly Hannon-Dalby but the required rate is suddenly well above 11 an over...
