Day Four

Morning: Storm Francis swept hard over the Midlands, and the sight of a wet outfield early on Tuesday persuaded all concerned that there was no point hanging around to resume a match that was already meandering to a stalemate. A virtual handshake and twelve points apiece sensibly settled on.
Match DRAWN
The Verdict: Frustratingly, with Somerset able to complete their win over Gloucestershire, the Pears slip back into 2nd going into the deciding game between the sides on 4th September. Another flat New Road pitch that weekend will spell the end of the competition for Worcestershire, as a draw will no longer be enough. One way or another, Worcs have to take a gamble.
