Webster Century Fires Warwickshire to Club-Record Blast Chase

The century elevates Webster in the Vitality Blast scoring race, putting pressure on Somerset's title defence.

Overview

  • Warwickshire completed a club-record T20 chase at Taunton on Sunday to claim their first Vitality Blast win of the season, finishing with two balls to spare.
  • Beau Webster scored his maiden T20 century, 112 off 61 balls, an innings that featured nine fours and seven sixes and anchored the successful chase.
  • Webster shared a 145-run third-wicket partnership with Dan Mousley, who finished unbeaten and saw the Bears home after Somerset had set about 215–216.
  • Somerset’s total was built on an unbeaten 90 from Jordan Hermann and 55 from Lewis Gregory, but the holders have now lost consecutive Blast matches and face rising pressure.
  • The innings moves Webster to the top of reported Blast run charts (288 from six innings) and could lift Warwickshire’s short-term momentum, though qualification remains uncertain.
