Sussex and 94,245 for 4286 vSomerset
SE Butler hit a splendid 109-ball century to save in Somerset on the second day of their County Championship match at Sussex Taunton. Buttler destroyed four sixes and 11 fours after the game to change the title chasing Somerset had collapsed in response to 245 93 7 Sussex, Monty Panesar, claiming five wickets in the morning session of the visitors.
Butler made exactly 100 and shared an eighth wicket stand of 142 with Alfonso Thomas, who battled away for nearly three hours to 42nd Murali Kartik also added 34 at number 10 before Somerset were thrown out of 286 to win a first innings advantage of the 41st
At the end of Sussex had been 94 for four in their second innings to lead with just 53, lost the cream of their stick of Chris Nash, Luke Wells, Ed Joyce and Murray Goodwin. For them it was a day of missed opportunity.
Somerset began at 36 to 1 and advanced to 51 before nightwatchman Steve Kirby was caught at slip for a second installment of tipping Panesar. Arul Suppiah opener soon followed, also caught in the stands for 14 Wayne Parnell, and Chris Jones and James Hildreth Panesar dismissed for ducks as Somerset fell to 54 5.
As Butler brought to the fold. He and Nick Compton Compton added 39 before top-edged an attempted sweep Panesar and fell to 16 in a single capture Goodwin mid-wicket. Peter Trego was the first ball with a bat and pad catch to short leg and Panesar had figures of 5-26 from 11 overs. Sussex seemed to be a vice and even when Somerset came to lunch on 124 for seven they were in big trouble.
Butler already deposited their instruments of delivery of Panesar in the tone of the river and lifted him over mid-wicket even at the most, and in the afternoon, continued to increase confidence.
While attacking Thomas Butler dug in to provide valuable support for young people and helped take the score to 235 before a ball Buttler anyone played James, a centurion in the output of a standing ovation and clapping behind in sports several players from Sussex.
Thomas had faced 154 balls and hit six boundaries and six, when Nash grabbed the bat and pad in the short leg to give Ollie Rayner in his second wicket. When Somerset had secured their second batting point, which seemed impossible before lunch.
Bowlers side of the house, then kept the momentum, hitting twice and Kartik and Thomas Kirby once each as Sussex went from 69-1 to 87 fourth
