Somerset vs Eagles Champions League T20 Cricket, Online Live Score, Highlights 2009

14th Match, League A: Eagles v Somerset at Hyderabad (Decc)
Oct 16 (16:00 local, 10:30 GMT)

South Africa’s Diamond Eagles put on a stellar performance in their last group match against Sussex Sharks to make the League stage of the Champions League Twenty20. So exciting was the match that it had to be decided by the Super Over. Despite a thrilling end, Eagles were the better team ahead of the English Twenty20 champions.

Now when they face the England’s second best Twenty20 team Somerset Sabres, the South African team can’t relax. Somerset has top players like Justin Langer and Marcus Trescothick in their ranks while players like Alfonso Thomas have proved that they are good finishers in lower down the order. The trio will be crucial in keeping alive Somerset’s chances in the tournament.

But Eagles have youngsters like Rilee Rossouw, who has showed nerves of steel against Sussex Sharks. The spotlight, however, will be on another young fast bowler Cornellius De Villiers, who bowled a sensational Super Over as Eagles charged into the next stage of the Champions League.
