In a rare and fun time, the game was briefly stopped during the 43rd game of the Regional Championship of the Division 2025 between Somerset and Nottinghamshire on the field of Cooper Associates in Taunte on Sunday, June 29.
This interruption did not occur due to the climate or injury, but the cause of a massive flock of gulls to the field of Cooper Associattes, in Taunte. The unusual incident took place during the 59th at Somerset’s entries against Nottinghamshire on Sunday.
The herd of the gulls stop Somerset against the nottinghamshire County Championship in Taunton
A large group of gulls went into the field, forcing the fields to stop the regional championship game between Somerset and Nottinghamshire temporarily for the safety of players and to erase unexpected intruders.
Your daily dose of cricket!
The players of the parts of Somerset and Nottinghamshire looked at the fun while the birds took care of the field, and the land staff intervened to move them out gently.
Although the game resumed after a few moments in Taunton, the picturesque interruption quickly made headlines and entertained the fans on the stands. The clip of the moment of the regional championship party was shared by Somerset in the X Official (before Twitter) Sunday.
Does anyone know if the gulls have stopped playing the cricket before? 😅😅#Somvnot#Wearesomerset pic.twitter.com/2qcjao6xtn

Seaguull hit and kill BBL’s match at MCG
Last time, this incident occurred during the Big Bash League (BBL) earlier this year, but it was a misfortune. Similar scenes had been deployed during the BBL clash between the Sydney Sixers and Melbourne’s protagonists on the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in January 2025.
However, at a miserable moment, a gull was hit by a powerful shot by James Vince of Sydney Sixers. The English launched a large disc directly to the Melbourne bowl ground Joel Paris. The ball remained low, but it had a lot of power behind it.

Just inside the limit, a group of gulls met and one of them failed to fly in time. The ball directly struck the bird, causing a brief break in play while the players and fans looked at each other. It was a rare and sad incident, as the gull lost life on the pitch.

In May 2025, a swarm of bees forced players off the pitch during the match of the county championship between Warwickshire and Hampshire. However, this regional championship game also resumed after a few minutes late.
Somerset fights to reach 275/6 in the collisions on day 1 after early collapse against Nottinghamshire
In the meantime, Somerset recovered from early problems to end the 1st to 275/6 against the Nottinghamshire Board-Toppers in the current Championship division of the division by 2025 in Taunte. After choosing BAT First, Somerset collapsed at 46/3 when Sean Dickson (0), Tom Lammonby (2) and Tom Kohler-Cadmore (31) fell cheap.
Brett Hutton and Mohammad Abbas claimed two doctors each for Nottinghamshire. Then James Rew (58) and Tom Abell (64) led the fight with a 99 stand. Rew reached half a century of 86 balls with 8 four before falling to the capture of Lyndon James. Abell followed after scoring Patterson-White on the side of the leg.
Tom Banton dropped on 2, played after 57* of 103 balls, and was well supported by Archie Vaughan (35), who fell to Abbas with the second new ball. Despite a short limit, races were difficult to do due to narrow bowling.
Kasey Aldridge ended the unbeaten day 4, helping Banton to safely take the collisions at 275/6 in 96 major against Nottinghamshire.
