Published on: Sep 13, 2020 1:04 pm IST|Updated on: Sep 13, 2020 1:19 pm IST
SOM vs GLO Dream11 Prediction: Table-toppers from Central Group Gloucestershire (GLO) are all set to host 4th placed Somerset (SOM) on September 13, Sunday, in the ongoing Vitality T20 Blast. Both teams are coming on the back of abandoned matches and would be desperate to get on with some action. GLO wouldn’t have minded the break as they are sitting pretty on top of the table with 9 points from 6 matches, but for SOM it was a different story as they only have 5 points from their 6 matches and need all the points they can accumulate. It has been freezy conditions in England and Somerset will have to turn up the heat if they want to get something out of this match and this might just be the perfect timing for them as GLO, though being on top, seems to be feeling the cold as they lost their first match to Glamorgan not too long ago in the tournament.

SOM vs GLO Dream11 Prediction
Gloucestershire are the clear favorites not only because they are leading the charts but also because of the fact that in the last five times the two teams have met GLO have tested victory thrice and have lost only once, while one encounter was washed away without a ball being bowled. Somerset, however, are in a position of nothing to lose and that may prompt them to play without fear. GLO also have a much better bowling line-up which is good enough to bring havoc to the Babar Azam-less Somerset outfit.

Dream11 Captain Options for SOM vs GLO Dream11 Match:
SOM:
Josh Davey: Scotland’s blue-eyed all-rounder has been Somerset’s leading wicket-taker in the season taking 7 wickets in the 3 matches he has played so far. The 30-year-old has a T20 career strike-rate of 125 and has taken tw 4-wicket hauls.
Tom Abell: The 25-year-old local boy is having a season to remember. With 164 runs at an average of 41 and a strike-rate of 154 he is the leading run-scorer for Somerset. Such has been his form that he has even surpassed his career numbers.
Roelof van der Merwe: The wily South African is one of the biggest names in the Somerset camp and he would be desperate to show his worth. He has done well in patches but that has been that. He is yet to pick a wicket in this season and how anxious he would be to change that, time to give him a go.
Ollie Sale: He is one of the youngest going around in the competition as this is his debut season but boy has he made some of the seniors nervous. He is the second highest wicket-taker for Somerset with 6 scalps.
GLO:
Tom Smith: This experienced left-arm spin has done wonders and is No.2 in the list of leading wicket-takers this season with 10 wickets and a brilliant economy rate of 5.6. If you won’t pick hum, then who will you pick?
Ryan Higgins: Higgins has been brilliant with both ball and ball. With the ball he has taken 10 wickets and is joint 2nd in leading wicket-takers list and with bat he is scoring runs at an average of 33 and a strike-rate of 133!
Chris Dent: The hard-hitting opener has been at his hard-hitting best and has exactly 200 runs so far at a blistering strike-rate of 172! This guy will get you extra points for the way he hits the ball.
Ian Cockbain: The 33-year-old has played over 100 T20s and is using all his experience helping his team maintain their top position. In the current season, he has been scoring runs at a rapid pace of 185 and has the highest score of 84* to his name.
Dream XI Prediction Expert Picks
Captain: Roelof van der Merwe – This man who has played 237 T20s to be precise, who has taken 223 wickets to be precise, has still not taken a single wicket in the tournament. Yes, it is a perfect time to make him the captain. He is due some wickets for sure. With the bat he has been doing well, striking at 182!
Vice-Captain: Tom Smith – Yes, pitches in England are slowing-up. So, you have a spinner as your captain and another one as your vice-captain. Smith deserves the role having taken 133 T20 wickets in 132 appearances. Plus, he has been a revelation this season.
