Because it's not even the toss yet, allow me to be delusional:

This is the year @somersetccc.bsky.social win the thing.

Congrats Nottinghamshire Men, I guess. Nice to see someone other than Surrey win the thing.

Still a remarkable achievement considering they only play with 10 men (I refuse to acknowledge the sexual predator in the squad).

I do feel a bit of sympathy for Craig Overton. He's clearly one of the best bowlers in the Championship, but he lacks that bit of extra to make it at test level.

Wily set-up plus brain fade from the batter equals easy catch for first slip. Always a nice wicket 👏 #AllGoodThingsForLeachy

Matt Henry. Currently the best Kiwi fast bowler, and also, on his way to be a @somersetccc.bsky.social legend? 🏏

'But what's the point of playing for four days if it ends in a draw?'
Because that is a massive achievement. Especially from a side that conceded 600.

Well done, Worcestershire! 🍐 🏏

Obligatory observations about how it's always easy to spot who's played test cricket when on #CountyWatch. There's a sort of calm authority that comes with facing the world's best players, and it carries over into the Championship.

(Yes, I'm referring to the 🥜).

There's nothing quite like the atmosphere at a cricket ground when a player is approaching a new record. "He needs to go past 342" made the rounds during the final overs of day 2 yesterday and when Tom Banton hit that boundary, the CACG was on its feet.

If that's not the sort of innings that gets you noticed by the England management, I don't know what is.

Incredible scenes in Taunton, Tom Banton with a new record for Somerset in first class- cricket! 🏏🐦‍⬛

444-4 has got to be one of the best cricket scores.

Little #CountyWatch things I love:
*the mix of "ooh" and "shot!" when a batter nails one
*Respectful applause for half centuries, centuries and teams passing said scores
* The quiet optimism in the grounds on the first day of the season
* All the little sounds and noises of the game.

Glorious April sunshine here in Taunton for the first day of the new season ✨️ (As per when I'm in England)
@somersetccc.bsky.social off to a quite decent start one over (probably) before lunch, and I remember what I love about red ball cricket.

Happy County Championship eve to everyone who celebrates #CountyWatch 🏏

As per usual: may we eventually get a women's Championship as well!

As for @somersetccc.bsky.social : we've got some unfinished business in all three formats, but especially in the Championship. 🐦‍⬛🤞

How Craig Overton was anywhere near the England team is absolutely beyond me. What he is is a top class county bowler. Nothing more, but also nothing less. 🐦‍⬛🏏

It'd be an absolute miracle, but the way Somerset have been playing (and especially sorting the batting out!) this season, I'm allowing myself to dream.

Second place, just 13 points behind Surrey... 🤩

Somerset have just been plain fun in the Championship this season! Chasing FOUR HUNDRED+ down and only losing 5 wickets is a very good omen for the remaining fixtures 🤞

Also: Tom Abell for England?

Lewis Gregory, on a mission to make a point to the ECB, for more than one format. While it's been fantastic seeing our club captain in such a brilliant form in all competitions: we do actually need him, as much as he deserves a go with England! ;)

Not wanting to diminish the abilities of anyone who's good enough to play first team county cricket. But today, you can easily spot who's got test cricket experience. They're just that little bit better.
