THE PREDICTION
A low-scoring thriller is in prospect as it so often is between two teams with poor batting line-ups, but excellent bowling attacks. The reverse fixture at Taunton saw Essex triumph by a single wicket chasing down 84 runs which puts into perspective the superiority of ball against bat when these two collide with neither side reaching 200 in that game. A similar encounter is expected at Chelmsford which has proven a spinner’s paradise in recent matches and the battle between Essex’s Simon Harmer and Somerset’s Jack Leach will be an intriguing one ahead of the England vs South Africa Test series next month. In regards to this match however, value is to be found backing Somerset with Essex on the back of defeat and without star seam-bowler Sam Cook, although only do so via the draw no bet market.
