Archie shone in bowling.
When Somerset needed wickets, Archie came and bowled in such a way that the team got back in the match. Surrey scored 321 runs against Somerset in the first innings but this score could have been bigger if Archie had not shown his flair. He took 6 wickets for 102 runs in 37 overs. Experienced English spinner Jack Leach took 4 wickets in this innings. Both of them together finished off Surrey's first innings.
