Gloucestershire over 60s

Gloucestershire over-60s’ second string suffered a last-over six-wicket reverse against Somerset in their latest County Championship outing but are still second in the Western Group, narrowly behind Devon.

Dave Durston and Roger Beese shared a century partnership as Gloucestershire battled back from a slow start to reach 232-7 from their 45 overs at Chipping Sodbury.

But Somerset, thanks to a century from Pete Rebera, timed their reply to perfection, clinching the win with two balls to spare.

Gloucestershire’s next home match is at Apperley on 22nd June against Worcestershire.
