SOM vs HAM Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's T20 Blast Match - June 25, 2021 

Somerset will lock horns with Hampshire in a South Group T20 Blast fixture at the Cooper Associates County Ground in Taunton on Friday.

Somerset are currently sixth in the South Group points table with two wins and as many losses from their six T20 Blast matches. They will head into today's encounter on the back of a seven-wicket win over Surrey Cricket. Somerset, who are on a two-game winning run, will be buoyed by the inclusion of prolific Kiwi batsman Devon Conway.

Hampshire, on the other hand, have won just one out of their six T20 Blast matches and currently find themselves languishing in the penultimate position in the South Group standings. Their last two games against Surrey and Gloucestershire were abandoned due to rain. Prior to that, Hampshire lost to Middlesex CCC by three wickets. They will welcome experienced New Zealand all-rounder Colin de Grandhomme, who was part of the Kiwis' World Test Championship triumph.

In the last five meetings between the two teams, Somerset have won four times, with Hampshire emerging victorious just once.

As the wicket will remain true throughout the match, chasing should be the preferred option upon winning the toss.
