Somerset wins this game by 2 wickets!!!
What a game of cricket we have witnessed today here at Mecca of cricket Lord's.The visitors sneaked away with a win from the jaws of defeat.

Hosts had a perfect start to the second innings. They got rid of Smeed in the 3rd over itself. Banton and Rossouw glued a partnership of 31 runs off 18 deliveries. Banton took the charge straight away and he didn't shy off in hitting the oddballs out of the park. He came with all guns blazing at the hosts.

But Harris came to the rescue for the hosts 
as he broke this partnership and Rossouw got dismissed after scoring 5 off 6 deliveries. Then the wickets started tumbling down for the visitors then lost their opener Banton and Lammonby in quick succession. Banton played a quick cameo off 39 runs off 28 deliveries.
Middlesex bowlers were pumped up in the middle overs as they were able to bag the wickets in the regular interval, they kept bowling consistently on good lines and lengths which didn't allow the Visitors to take easy singles.

That helped them in building the pressure and the required run rate started piling up and 24 runs were needed off 12 deliveries, Overton came in the middle and smoked two back-to-back humungous sixes and pulled the game back towards Somerset. Davey didn't shy off in hitting a maximum in the last over and they sneaked away with the victory with 2 balls spare.

Beherendoff was a stand-out bowler for the Middlesex as he bagged three wickets, Harris picked up a couple of wickets but he was expensive. Middlesex came into this game with nothing to lose attitude as they are out of the tournament already,Somerset retain their spot at the second position on the points table after today's win.

19.4 C Green to J Davey
1 Quicker and fuller delivery around leg, Davey reverse sweeps it towards backward point and scampers across for a quick run. The throw comes in but Davey makes his ground comfortably and takes his side across the line. With this, Somerset beat Middlesex by two wickets.
Scores are level!!!
19.3 C Green to J Davey
2 Fuller delivery outside off, Davey drives it towards long off. The fielder comes in and a fumble from him allows the batters to complete two runs. The throw comes in at the striker's end but Davey dives full-length to make his ground. Excellent running between the wicket from both batters and they now require only one run to win this contest.
19.2 C Green to J Davey
6 In the air and just clears long on. What a shot from Davey. Green bowls it on a length on the stumps, Davey lifts it straight and the long on fielder was interested in it but it sails over him to clear the ropes. Just three required now from four balls.
19.1 C Green to R van
1 One to start the over. Green bowls it quicker and flatter outside off, van der Merwe cuts it to the sweeper in the off side for a single.
 Somerset needs 10 runs off 6 balls,We are heading to one more nail bitter!!!

18.6 J Behrendorff to C Overton
W GONE. Behrendorff has the last laugh. Bowls it full outside off, Overton tries to hit this one out of the park over long on but ends up slicing it and Middlesex skipper Eskinazi settles under it at covers and pouches it safely. Overton has played a fantastic knock of 12 off three balls as it has given his side some hope of chasing this total.
18.5 J Behrendorff to C Overton
6 BOOOOMM!!!! Overton has changed the whole complexion of this game. Behrendorff bowls on a length on off, Overton slogs it across the line and clears the mid wicket fence. That was six the moment it left the bat. Just 10 required now off seven balls.
18.4 J Behrendorff to C Overton
6 SIXXX!!!! What a way to start your innings. Behrendorff bowls an off-cutter outside off, Overton shuffles across his sticks and heaves it in the leg side and clears the fence with ease. A much-needed blow for the visitors.

18.3 J Behrendorff to B Green
W WICKET!!!! Green holes out in the deep. Brilliant from Behrendorff. Bowls a slower delivery on the fuller side outside off, Green sits deep in his crease and tries to smack it over long on but doesn't get it off the middle of the bat as he hits it straight down the throat of long on where Chris Green pouches it safely.
18.2 J Behrendorff to B Green
2 A touch fuller this time, Green hits it to the left of long on and collects a couple of runs.
18.1 J Behrendorff to B Green
0 Swing and a miss. Length delivery going away outside off, Green swings hard at it and gets beaten.
