Kiran Carlson's side defeated Gloucestershire by 40 runs in the last game. The team has struggled with consistency this season. The top order hasn't enjoyed a great run, and it will worry the team as they are up against the strongest team in their group. Carlson wants his players to punch above their weight and win this game.
Kiran Carlson and William Smale missed out in the last game, and the team expects the pair to do well in this contest. Ben Kellaway, Colin Ingram, and Chris Cooke did well in the last game and will look to repeat the same magic in the middle order. Asa Tribe and Daniel Douthwaite have good hitting abilities, and they will put them to good use in this game.
Timm van der Gugten and Imad Wasim bowled brilliantly in the last game, and the team expects them to pick early wickets. Ned Leonard and Daniel Douthwaite must keep the scoring under check in the middle overs as they face a strong batting lineup that will take them on. Mason Crane and Ben Kellaway add variety to this bowling attack.

Lewis Gregory's team is enjoying an excellent run in the tournament. They defeated the Hampshire Hawks in the last game by 17 runs and sit comfortably at the top of the points table. The batting lineup has done well, with the top order delivering in most games. Gregory would like his team to build on the momentum and book a berth in the knockout stage with another win.
Will Smeed played a match-winning knock in the last game. With 275 runs, he is the second-highest scorer this season and looks forward to delivering an electrifying start with Tom Banton. They have a formidable middle order and shall expect runs in the game from Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Tom Abell, and Sean Dickson. Lewis Gregory, Ben Green, and Craig Overton are powerful strikers, and the trio adds solidity to the batting lineup.
Craig Overton has done well with the new ball. The team expects early strikes from him and Josh Davey to put Glamorgan under pressure. Riley Meredith and Ben Green would look to trouble the batters in the middle overs by bowling tight lines. The team expects a good show from Lewis Goldsworthy and Lewis Gregory in the supporting role.

Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, offers assistance to the fast bowlers in the game's early overs, but batsmen can also play their strokes as there is true pace and bounce on this surface. Spinners have enjoyed success as the large ground makes it challenging for the batsmen to hit boundaries.
Most teams have won games at this venue bowling first in the last two seasons. The conditions are tough for batting at the start of the game, and it eases as the game progresses. Hence, the side that wins the toss will look to bowl first and use the conditions.
Glamorgan enters this game with a win, but the team has struggled with consistency. The top order has struggled, and they have a poor record against Somerset, which will be on their minds. Somerset has enjoyed an excellent run this season, and the side has covered all of its bases. They have won the last six out of seven games at this venue, giving them an edge.
