Banton falls just short of being 10th player with first-class 400

Against Worcestershire at Taunton, Somerset's Tom Banton fell agonisingly close to becoming the 10th cricketer with a first-class quadruple hundred, of whom two have done it twice. Brian Lara is the only one to have hit a quintuple hundred as well as the only one with a Test match quadruple. Banton's 371 is also a new record for Somerset.
