Somerset Sabres travel to face their old rivals Gloucestershire in Bristol later this afternoon in their penultimate Twenty20 match of this season.

In the matches between the two sides so far this season, Somerset have won the two championship matches with ease, whilst Gloucestershire have triumphed in the two one day fixtures.

After suffering an eight wicket defeat in the home match between the two sides in the Twenty20 Cup, the Sabres will go to Nevil Road in search of making amends and whilst the result makes no difference to Somerset's standing in the table, their opponents need to win to keep their chances of qualifying for the quarter finals alive.

Carl Gazzard, who has turned in some good performances for the Seconds will keep wicket at Bristol in place of Craig Kieswetter, who is being rested whilst Ian Blackwell has also been added to the travelling squad.

Somerset will choose their team from the following- Justin Langer, Matt Wood, Cameron White, John Francis, James Hildreth, Wes Durston, Pete Trego, Carl Gazzard, Gareth Andrew, Charl Willoughby, Andy Cadick, Arul Suppiah, Mark Turner and Ian Blackwell.
