Essex vs Somerset Dream11 Prediction

After suffering the ignominy of a drubbing at the hands of Hampshire (by six wickets), Essex would be looking to turn their fortunes when they host Somerset in the South Group, Royal London One-Day 2018 fixture on Friday, May 25th. Nothing went right for the hosts after posting a mammoth 6-303 in fifty overs. Gritty fifties from the quartet of Wheater (70), Westley (66), Bopara (55), and skipper ten Doeschate (57) went in vain, as a scintillating hundred from Rile Rossouw (111), and gritty contributions from Vince (66), and Adams (51) meant Hampshire strolled past the target with six wickets in hand.

Their opponent, too, is coming off a humbling at the hands of Sussex (by 75 runs), as they ran into a bludgeoning Luke Wright (105 off 87 balls). Groenwald (3-63), and Waller (3-52) had a great day with the ball, but even they could not stop Sussex from posting a mammoth 7-341 in 50 overs. James Hildreth (87), and Renshaw (55) battled for Somerset, but they could not save their side from a 75-run drubbing as Somerset folded for just 266. The encounter against Essex offers them a chance to redeem their fledgling campaign.
