He finished with 3-25 from his eight overs.

Somerset were put into bat and were reduced to 53-6 at one stage after losing four wickets for two runs.

Bilal Hussain (2-21), Henry Marshall (1-31), Edward Bragg (1-33) and George Marshall (1-35) were the other wicket-takers.

When Worcestershire batted, opener Calum Lea made 30 before he was lbw to Lewis Goldsworthy.
