Last updated : 16 April 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Warwickshire County Cricket Club thrashed Somerset on the third day of their County Championship game at Taunton by the biggest margin since 1921.

Somerset resumed on 147-6 and Chris Woakes picked up three more wickets to take his figures to 6-85 as Somerset were all out for 210.

In their second innings, Somerset only had two runs on the board when Woakes removed Suppiah in the second over.

Andrew Miller bowled the next over and took two wickets in the space of three balls before Woakes had Trescothick caught in the fourth over.

That saw the score at 7-4 and twenty three more runs were added by Kieswetter and Buttler before the former became Woakes' third victim of the innings.

Woakes had figures of 3-16 but enter Rikki Clarke who took the remaining five wickets to give himself figures of 5-10 and with Somerset all out for fifty, Warwickshire won by an innings and 328 runs which was the sixth best County Championship winning margin of all time.

On Wednesday, Warwickshire are back in County Championship action with a match at Worcestershire. Play is due to start at 11am and commentary can be heard via the BBC Coventry & Warwickshire website.
