It's spin now, with Danny Briggs twirling the ball into the batters and giving away just five from his opening over.

Bears could do with another quick wicket or two, though, you feel, if they're going to put Somerset under pressure.

I thought the 50 might have got a bit of an applause... Barely a ripple.

You just feel a bit of pressure mounting here on Tom Kohler-Cadmore.

What Bears did brilliantly was that they hit the boundaries but they got ones and twos on a regular basis.

Somerset are getting too many dots.

Danny Briggs or Jake Lintott might have been the expectation for the first post-powerplay over, but instead the ball is handed to another wily campaigner in the shape of Ed Barnard.

Barnard starts well, but then drops one short and Tom Abell turns it away for four before finding another gap on the other side of the wicket to ensure Somerset take 10 runs from the over.

That's the end of the powerplay, with another tidy, accurate over from Richard Gleeson.

It would have been a perfect over but the final delivery, which was a tad wide and chopped to the third man boundary by Tom Kohler-Cadmore.

In comparison, Bears were 82-1 after their opening six overs.

Frustration for Olly Hannon-Dalby as the first ball of his second over is clipped to the fence by Tom Abell - and Tom Kohler-Cadmore finds the boundary as well later in the over with a crisp straight drive over the top.

Somerset are well behind where their visitors were at this stage - but they'll be quite happy with this start. The required rate is exactly 10-an-over from here on.

Just for a moment I thought Jake Lintott was struggling to judge it but in the end he set himself very nicely.

I feel Bears do need wickets against this strong batting side if they're to contain Somerset and give themselves a chance of defending this 191.

Two Toms at the crease for Somerset now - though they often have four in their top order - and Abell, the former captain, is off the mark with a single.

Good over by Richard Gleeson, though, with just two runs yielded and the wicket of the dangerous Will Smeed.

Somerset 27-0 (target 191) v Bears

Well, the Taunton crowd hadn't had any use for their '6' placards yet tonight - but they're waving them furiously now as Tom Kohler-Cadmore picks up a short ball from George Garton and sends it way back for the first maximum of the night.

Kohler-Cadmore picks up four as well from a top edge that flies to safety and beats the fielder over the rope. This is more the kind of scoring rate Somerset are looking for.

The crowd have gone quiet again.

The Somerset supporters have been very nervous so far this evening.

Olly Hannon-Dalby brings plenty of experience to the table for the Bears and that's a very solid first over from the tall paceman until the final ball, which Will Smeed clouts over the top for four.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore is caught in two minds a couple of times, playing forward and missing. Bears could do with one of those taking the edge next time...

Right, it's still the early stage of this Somerset chase.

Is it going to be a fifth straight Finals Day appearance for them? Or will Bears break their quarter-final curse?

What do you lovely people reckon?

Thumbs up for the Cider Boys, thumbs down for Bears.

Left-armer George Garton sends down the opening over, coming around the wicket to Will Smeed and starts well.

But Smeed gets off strike with a single and Tom Kohler-Cadmore promptly creams his first delivery to the cover fence.

Here we go, then - Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Will Smeed stride to the middle to launch this Somerset chase of 191.

Bears finish with a good score and one that might be competitive on a pitch that didn't look as though it was full of pace.

But nevertheless it's someway short of their ambitions at halfway, and certainly their ambitions when they took 82 off six overs in the powerplay.

It's not a bad score, they're in with a chance, but it's not what they would have hoped for.

Somerset are going to go back into the dressing room slightly the happier at this point.

Kent captain Sam Billings praised Fred Klaassen for his efforts with the ball after the Spitfires’ T20 Blast hopes were brought to an end in their quarter-final at Old Trafford.

The left-arm seamer took 3-14 in his four overs as the Spitfires battled to defend a total of 153, but it was not enough as Liam Livingstone’s destructive 85 not out steered Lancashire to a three-wicket victory.

Billings, who skippered the Spitfires to the T20 title four years ago, said: “Liam’s an international quality player, and he’s done it for a very long time. I felt that we needed to get him out and we took a couple of risks which didn’t quite come off.

“We had to try and kill the game and get him out – that’s why I had to try and get Fred Klaassen back in the game.

“He did brilliantly today, he bowled beautifully and we started off brilliantly with the ball, but it wasn’t to be. It was one of those days of fine margins.”

Lancashire Lightning all-rounder and player of the match Liam Livingstone described his match-winning performance against Kent Spitfires as ‘one of the best games of cricket I’ve ever played’.

Livingstone took 2-21 with his leg-spin to help restrict Kent to 153 in their 20 overs at Old Trafford before holding the home side’s replay together with an explosive 85 not out from 45 balls.

“I felt like the ball came out of my hand really nicely,” the 32-year-old told BBC Radio Lancashire. “Obviously to be able to steer the team home towards the end while still trying to take on their bowlers as well, I think it was probably one of the best T20 innings I’ve played.

“It’s pretty sweet that it came at that time. I’m just over the moon that I could be out there to win the game for the boys and get us to the final - it’s probably one of the best games of cricket I’ve ever played, to be honest.

“I feel like the cricket we’ve played over the last however many months, we deserve to go to Finals Day. This sometimes is the hardest hurdle to get over because it’s a one-off match and we’ve played 14 games to get here.”

Somerset would have snapped your hand off to have to chase 191 after the Bears had reached 82-1 at the end of the powerplay.

But while we wait to see how they get on, let's reflect on Lancshire's earlier exciting three-wicket win over Kent, set up by Liam Livingstone's fireworks.

Only eight runs and the one boundary from the final over.

The Bears might be a little short there but we'll wait and see.

For the first time in a T20 Blast innings at Taunton there are no sixes but we have seen 28 fours including six off Riley Meredith's first over.

Skipper Alex Davies made a 39-ball 71 with Rob Yates (25), Sam Hain (21) and Kai Smith (28*) playing useful hands.

Ben Green (2-30) helped get the home side back into it and taking pace off the ball might be the key to this.
