Robinson names strong Board XI side to face Somerset on Tuesday
Richard Walsh - 7 April 2002

Somerset Board Eleven manager Peter Robinson has named a strong side to play against Somerset at the County Ground on Tuesday.

The Board XI includes several players who could themselves force their way into the Somerset first team so both sides will very fiercely contest the game.

Captained by Kevin Parsons from Taunton St Andrew's the side named is: Luke Stokes (Millfield School), Tom Webley (Bournemouth CC), Michael Coles (Bridgwater CC), wicket-keeper Tim Burt and Rob Travers (both Glastonbury CC), Kevin Sedgebeer (Taunton St Andrew's), Russell Jones (Taunton CC) and Arul Suppiah who also played for Taunton CC last year. Two young fast bowlers from the Somerset staff will complete the Board XI team.

The game gets under way at 11am and will be forty-five overs each side.

Admission to the ground is free, and the bar will be open all day and will serve refreshments and light lunches as usual.
