ScorecardA devastating innings by Corey Anderson and four wickets for Max Waller saw Somerset to their seventh consecutive Vitality Blast victory and a place in the quarter finals after they beat Glamorgan by 29 runs.After the start was delayed until 3.15pm by earlier rain, Somerset looked like falling well short of a competitive total after reaching 47 for 2 after six overs and 75 for 3 at the halfway stage. However when Abell was out for five Anderson came to the wicket to join James Hildreth the tempo stepped up.Hildreth brought up the 100 with a six over deep backward square off Andrew Salter and along with Anderson added 50 for the fifth wicket partnership. Next ball however he looked to scoop Timm van der Gugten over the ‘keepers head and was caught by Chris Cooke for 47.Anderson was then joined by Lewis Gregory and the pair traded blows taking 19 off the 16th over that was bowled by Graham Wagg.The New Zealander was enjoying himself and one of his sixes off Wagg was launched high into the air and cleared the scoreboard into St James’ churchyard.Anderson went to his 50 with a six off Hogan, but next ball Gregory who had raced onto 22 off nine balls was caught at long on by former Somerset player Craig Meschede, after adding 57 for the sixth wicket.Corey Anderson drives Somerset forward•Getty Images
