Warwickshire County Cricket Club were beaten by 117 runs against Somerset.

In a Royal London Cup tie at Edgbaston, play did not get underway until 2.15pm due to rain but when it did, Warwicks put Somerset into bat.

Rikki Clarke struck early to remove Nick Compton but Marcus Trescothick made forty one before he was run out with Colin Ingram making 47 and former Warwickshire player Tim Groenewald making 57.

At the other end, Peter Trego hit 101 from 103 balls including four sixes as Somerset closed on 298-5.

Warwicks batted and lost Will Porterfield with only three runs on the board and with the score on forty six, Jon Trott was caught for 29.

Freddie Coleman added 25, Tim Ambrose 33 and Laurie Evans fifty but the tail-end struggled for runs and Warwicks were all out for 181.
