Cricket: The John Player League: Middlesex v Somerset

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

from Lord's
Middlesex finished fifth in the League last year after the disappointment of losing their last three matches. They have made a good start this season and Mike Brearley and his well-balanced side will be striving for honours again. Somerset, seventh in the League last year, are led by Brian Close and their batting this season is strengthened by the arrival of Jim Parks from Sussex.
