Somerset’s chief Brian Rose lauds Steve Snell – Cricket News Update
Somerset’s chief Brian Rose appreciated the performance of stand in wicketkeeper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Steve-Snell-c2580, who played a crucial role in the team’s successful start in the Champions League Twenty20.
Snell replaced http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750.
According to Rose, “If you look at what Steve has done for us at very short notice – in the one-day game he played for us at Taunton and in his performances here – he’s obviously got a lot of character. I’m sure a few counties will have looked at what he’s
done for us and been impressed.”
Rose further stated that he would love to have Snell back in the side in the absence of the regular wicketkeepers, but claimed that any other county will definitely sign the youngster for a full time job.
He added, “Craig and Jos could both be away for long periods with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harold-William-Stephenson-c61707 was available, I’d have him. But a county might come in now and offer him a full-time contract – and good luck to him if that happens, because he has served us very
well at such short notice.”
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Somerset-c843 have surprised quite a few teams in the Champions League Twenty20. They have defeated the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) twice in the tournament
The star of the show for the English club has been South Africa’s all-rounder Roelof van der Merwe, who has been doing exceptionally well in all three departments of the game.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Graham-Robert-Cowdrey-c60631 der Merwe clobbered a magnificent 73-run knock off 40 balls in the team’s encounter against KKR and stunned the home crowd.
This performance also impressed Rose, who labelled it as one of the best in the club’s history.
However, the Somerset team has struggled to perform once the top-order gets out. Things could change though, as Kieswetter and Buttler will make the batting line up stronger than before.
If things keep on working in the same way for the English team, they will definitely make it to the final four of the event.
