Across a gloomy, grey but mercifully dry few hours at a near-deserted Trent Bridge Somerset added defeat in the One-Day Cup final to their season of excruciating close shaves and infuriating near-misses, Glamorgan snaffling the trophy for the second time in four years as a delayed, abbreviated final was somehow squeezed between the downpours.
