The Cooper Associates County Ground

Somerset and Yorkshire’s first County Championship Division One clash since the 2022 season is going to be held on September 8, 2025, at The Cooper Associates County Ground, Taunton. The match is set to kick off at 3:30 PM IST.

Somerset vs Yorkshire Chances of Winning

Somerset are a competitive team in the tournament this season and they wound up in a high scoring encounter against Nottinghamshire last time out. The former scored a whopping 438 runs where James Rew and Tom Abell were both centurions with 166 and 156 runs, respectively. Despite that, the bowlers absolutely fumbled their advantage as they conceded 544 runs to their rivals. Somerset’s batters had their work cut out at this juncture and they were 200/5 before a lack of time thwarted a result, putting the teams in a deadlock.

Yorkshire are a mediocre team this season but they were dominant in the last game against Sussex where the latter were kept down to 222 and the Leeds-based team surpassed the target with a massive 545-run stand on the board. Matthew Revis’s unbeaten 152 was the top score while opener Adam Lyth was next in line with 115 runs. George Hill’s 75 was also a brilliant individual total and the bowlers delivered by dismissing Sussex for 195. In the end, the Dom Bess-led side took victory by a monumental margin of an innings and 128 runs.

Somerset vs Yorkshire Betting Tips

Yorkshire to score over 22.5 before first dismissal @ 1.87 (Batery)

Adam Lyth and Finlay Bean are a stable opening pair and they are highly dependable, especially since their partnerships have only been on an upward trajectory over the course of the season. In the five games leading up to this encounter, they added 46, 107, 15, 81, 41*, 0, 2 and 40 runs to the first wicket together. Their progression puts them at an advantage in the upcoming fixture.

Somerset vs Yorkshire Toss Prediction

The Cooper Associates County Ground is a fielding track through and through where those chasing have a 2-1 record with those batting first this season. The toss winners have elected to chase on four occasions in five fixtures so far, and the average first innings score of 244 is quite easily attainable. The toss winning skipper will want to chase in the next game, too.

Weather Report

Taunton will experience sunny skies with a 35% likelihood of precipitation, and the temperature is set to go up to 18 degrees Celsius on the day of the game.

Predicted Playing XI

Somerset Team Form

Somerset’s batting is brilliant but their bowlers need to improve going forward, considering they were rather lax in their approach during the last game.

Yorkshire Player List

Jonny Bairstow (c), Adam Lyth, Dawid Malan, Harry Brook, James Wharton, Joe Root, Matthew Revis, Noah Kelly, Shan Masood, William Luxton, George Hill, Jafer Chohan, Jordan Thompson, Yash Vagadia, Donovan Ferreira, Finlay Bean, Jonathan Tattersall, Adil Rashid, Ben Coad, Benjamin Cliff, Daniel Moriarty, Dom Bess, Matt Milnes, Matthew Fisher, Mickey Edwards, Vishwa Fernando, Jack White, Will O’Rourke, Will Sutherland.

Predicted Playing XI

Yorkshire Team Form

Yorkshire are a mediocre team this season and even though they have a powerful opening lineup, they do not have the firepower to challenge Somerset.

Somerset vs Yorkshire Head-to-Head

Somerset and Yorkshire are in dead heat with a 2-2 record in the previous five head-to-head games.

Somerset vs Yorkshire Betting Odds

Yorkshire to have a better opening partnership than Somerset

Somerset’s tendency to change their opening batters frequently has proven to be a detriment to the side as the openers ended up with erratic, unstable scores of 0, 32, 62, 13, 10 and 4 runs in the previous three games. Yorkshire, though, have been rather stable in this regard as Adam Lyth and Finlay Bean, their mainstays, secured totals of 46, 107, 15, 81 and 41* runs together in the last three matches. Their consistency makes them a more reliable pair going into the next game.

Favorites to win

Somerset

Yorkshire are in the middle of the pack in seventh place with three wins, four losses and four draws while Somerset are a top contender, occupying third place with the potential to give the others a run for their money. They have four victories, two defeats and five drawn games at the moment. Although both sides are nip and tuck with a 2-2 scoreline in the previous five head-to-head matches, Somerset are superior in the present tournament and will be expected to reign supreme in the next encounter.
