With four of their order going on to post half-centuries in Kyle Coetzer (54), Adam Rossington (62), David Willey (53) and Andrew Hall (66), their attempt was certainly commendable. But title-cashing Somerset - for whom Lewis Gregory dismissed two of those batsmen and finished with career-best match figures of 11 for 122 - ultimately managed to complete the job, bowling out their opponents for 351 to seal a 52 - run win.
