The curtain may have come down in appropriate fashion on the Scottish Saltires' 2012 CB40 campaign yesterday, with rain teeming down upon Uddingston, but the clouds neither arrived early enough nor were thick enough to overshadow the scale of Somerset's victory.

Duckworth-Lewis was ultimately needed with just three quarters of the 80 overs completed, but only just – the men from England's West Country having dominated. They were 53 runs in advance of the 80 they needed to be ahead of schedule at the end of the 23rd over, in progress when umpires Nick Cook and George Sharp deemed it too wet to continue, by which time the Satires had been outplayed in every facet.
