Vitality T20 Blast 2024

Tournament Overview

Series Overview

Gloucestershire cricket history was made on September 14, 2024 at Edgbaston. In one of Finals Day's most commanding performances, Gloucestershire dismissed reigning champions Somerset for just 124 then chased the target in 15 overs with 8 wickets to spare. Matt Taylor and David Payne's hostile new-ball bowling decimated Somerset's top order, and Miles Hammond and Cameron Bancroft then put on a century stand to ease Gloucestershire home. Hammond's unbeaten 58 from 41 balls earned him Player of the Match. It was Gloucestershire's first T20 title — ending their wait despite multiple semi-final and Finals Day appearances across the competition's history. For Somerset, the 8-wicket defeat on Finals Day was a painful reverse after their 2023 title win.
