Lead

 * Wikilink toss to Toss (cricket) and man of the match to its respective article
 * Done. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "to complete a dominating nine wicket victory with more than twenty overs remaining." - not so sure that the word "dominating" is appropriate on this encyclopedia
 * Switch to dominant. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Background

 * "Somerset came into the competition as holders," - wikilink Somerset to Somerset County Cricket Club on the first mention in the prose
 * Linked. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * ESPNcricinfo needs a wikilink
 * Linked. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Route to the final

 * "and then made their Benson & Hedges Cup score," - am pretty certain the word "highest" is missing from this sentence
 * Indeed, added. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Summary

 * Wikilink toss to Toss (cricket) and man of the match to its respective article
 * Linked. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "and after keeping Paul Todd on his back foot" - try to reword the text in bold to something more formal
 * It's not informal, it's just a technical term. I have wikilinked to an appropriate article. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "Hassan was later caught behind playing a reckless shot off" - the word "reckless" sounds somewhat like sports journalism in this instance
 * Trimmed. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "neither consistently attacking of defending." - typo; should be spelled as or
 * Fixed. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Aftermath

 * Eric Hill should be wikilinked to Eric Hill (cricketer)
 * Linked. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "by winning the 1987 NatWest Trophy and the 1989 Benson & Hedges Cup.[13][1]" - refs in numerical order please
 * MOS:REF specifically states that "References need not be moved solely to maintain the chronological order of footnotes as they appear in the article.." But it's no biggie, so fixed. Harrias  talk 10:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
