Nowt More Precious Than Gold(sworthy)

What a victory that was! A victory for Somerset and a place in the One-Day Cup Final at Trent Bridge in September. But also a victory for cricket. We love this tournament and Sunday at Taunton brought out the very best in everyone. Not just the runs, the wickets, the tension. But also the supporters, the relationships, the harmony. Yes, the Leicestershire fans (who were brilliant) and players left disappointed. But a much wider battle was won. Days like these count, they really do.

Naturally, this week’s podcast focuses on that game. But we also touch on the England Lions before looking ahead to the County Championship’s return. Yes, folks, it’s back. Somerset head to Edgbaston on Thursday. Can they push for the title? (spoiler: yes).

Joining Sam and Harry for the show was one of the best known voices in county cricket (and a massive Bears fan). Aaron Viles - AKA the Cricket Connoisseur - is the founder and host of the brilliant County Cricket podcast. What do you mean you haven’t listened? No, but seriously, if you haven’t, you really need to.
