17/3. Pathetic. Sibley, Yates and Hain all gone for very little. Absolute shambles. Division 2 beckons.....

Great, Sibley gone for a duck! 4/1. Lead by 23. This just gets worse.....

Brookes was reckless, why oh why??
However, Dom Sibley has just got his ton to take it to 251/8. A second valuable batting point.
We're going to miss Dom Sibley next season.....

Hain gone cheaply! It goes from bad to worse.....!

Pathetic from Davies, again! How is he playing in every game? Totally useless. To think, in an ideal world, it could've been a bowling attack of Woakes, Stone, Siraj and Norwell.....!

Hope he's not heading for the exit door....

I see Woakes and Stone are both in Pakistan with England. Just got themselves fit to play in the T20! A massive loss for the Bears, particularly Woakes who hasn't played a single game for Warwickshire's first team. Stone hasn't bowled a single ball in red ball cricket either. Norwell is also out of these crucial last two games with an elbow injury. He's barely featured in another injury hit campaign.

I'd like to see Ashley Giles return to sort out the mess the club is in. He rebuilt the team before after another DoC disaster, Mark Greatbatch wrecked things.

Just no sensible patience from Sibley and Davies. Literally given their wickets away. Somerset could still win this....

Somerset 51/2 with a lead of 74. Unless something dramatic happens, the best Warwickshire can hope for now is a draw. So slow now, 34 overs to score 53!

147/6. Yadav & Burgess (duck) both gone to Brooks. Looks bleak now......only Sam Hain showing any real class with his batting.

Yes, this team is unrecognisable from 12 months ago. Serious questions need to be asked of the management and selection of players. Davies is hopeless and has been most of the season. Why is Matt Lamb not playing given his respectable average this year? A shambles...

Already 2/1. Yates out for a duck. This isn't going well after yesterday's dominant position when Somerset were 82/7.

Somerset have been let off the hook here. 216/9. Wicket seems fairly flat now and the ball isn't doing much, but the ball is 65 overs old.

Siraj has 4/38 now. Need to get Gregory out. 141/8.

Siraj is next level and just what the bowling attack needs. However, that over by Briggs with 3 successive 6's was really poor. We need to mop up the tail quickly and not let a dominant position slip by.

Good start, but rain soon fell. Surprised that Somerset decided to bat in these conditions. Good for Siraj to get the early wicket. Is Norwell not fit?

I would like to see Ashley Giles back at Edgbaston. He is a true Bear who'd hopefully bring back some stability.

Well, Henry Brookes really starred for Birmingham Phoenix tonight: 5 wickets in a stunning victory over Southern Brave. Will Smeed also hit the first hundred in the hundred for Phoenix! Amazing power hitting....

That was abysmal bowling at the end. Matt Mason, as the bowling coach has been useless. He's nowhere near as good as Graeme Welch. You have to question the decision making by the club's management. To me, Allan Donald should've got the role.
