Aldridge and Abell rescue the situation
Western Daily Press
|September 17, 2025
CENTURIES from Tom Abell and Kasey Aldridge saw Somerset recover from a perilous position on the second day of the County Championship Division One game against Hampshire in Taunton, writes Richard Latham.
-
After the first day washout, the hosts slumped to 99 for five having won the toss, before Abell and Aldridge put together a sixthwicket stand of 221, Abell making 118 and Aldridge 149 not out.
Keith Barker was the pick of the Hampshire bowling attack with two for 35 from 13 overs.
For Abell, it was a second Championship ton in successive games, while Aldridge’s score was a career-best, beating the 101 not out he made against Lancashire at Old Trafford in 2023. Together they enabled their team to close on 381 for seven.
