What a comeback that is. Remember, Somerset were 89 for 9 in their first innings after conceding 313, and only avoided the follow-on thanks to some last-wicket heroics between Marchant de Lange and Jack Leach. Then, Middlesex were 254 ahead with seven wickets in hand in their second dig, before a dramatic collapse opened the door. Half-centuries for Tom Abell and George Bartlett set things up, but Lewis Gregory's counter-attacking knock after lunch really changed the game. Huge win for Somerset to get out of the red at the earliest opportunity, having started this season on minus eight points.

Bamber to Gregory, FOUR, short, wide, cut away for four to a huge cheer from the Somerset balcony! Scores are level as a gust of wind sweeps across Lord's

Final throw of the dice from Eskinazi, bringing Ethan Bamber back into the attack from the Pavilion End. Two slips in place, keeper up to the stumps, and short extra cover in tight
