Somerset continued their strong start to the defence of their Vitality Blast title as James Rew’s brilliance fired them to a seven-wicket win over Warwickshire Bears at Edgbaston.
It’s two wins out of two for Lewis Gregory’s side after they chased down Warwickshire’s 189 for six (Sam Hain 52 from 35 balls, Rob Yates 42, 25, Beau Webster 41, 30).
Somerset then reached 193 for three with ten balls to spare after Tom Banton (47, 26) laid the foundation on which Rew built with a superb 93 (48 balls, nine fours, four sixes). While the defending champions have started the group stage at a gallop with confidence sky-high, the Bears are already playing catch up in the group after two defeats. Warwickshire chose to bat and soon lost Alex Davies, who skied Craig Overton to extra cover.
