Worcestershire put a surprise C&G Trophy defeat by Scotland behind them with a convincing 61-run victory over Leicestershire at Grace Road. A total of 191-8, spearheaded by Ben Smith's 59 against his former club, was a reasonable effort after a delayed start caused by a damp outfield. And it proved more than good enough with Paul Nixon (67) the only home batsman able to cope with their attack. Spinner Gareth Batty picked up 4-27 as Leicestershire were bowled out for 130. David Masters (12) was the only other Leicestershire batsman to reach double figures after their top order had been swept away by the new ball spell from Zaheer Khan (2-22) and Matt Mason (2-15). Smith gave the Worcestershire innings some substance before driving Masters to cover and Roger Sillence struck three sixes in an unbeaten 44. ------------- |

How about Phil Jaques though, 107 from 69 balls is fantastic in anyones book, especially in a county game. Without him the game was lost, goes to show that Austrlia's batting stocks aren't as depleted as some people in australia seem to think. GO JAQUESY ------------- 5-0 You Beauty!!!!!

LOU VINCENT TO REPLACE PHIL JAQUES Worcestershire CCC has announced that New Zealand batsman, Lou Vincent, will replace Phil Jaques for a 5 week period in July. Jaques will return to Australia for their ‘Top End Series’ on 24th June and will be back for the LVCC game against Glamorgan in Colwyn Bay on 2nd August. Vincent has played 22 Test Matches (including a knock of 224 against Sri Lanka) and 83 ODI’s for New Zealand. He is an opening batsman with three Test Match centuries and two ODI centuries to his name and is an outstanding fielder. Worcestershire’s Director of Cricket, Steve Rhodes, says, “I am delighted that Lou has agreed to play with us. He is the ideal person to substitute for Phil particularly for the Twenty20 Cup competition. He will bring a dynamic style of play and is the type of character we want in the dressing room.” Lou Vincent says, “It didn’t take me long to decide to accept Worcestershire’s offer and I am really looking forward to joining the squad later in June. I hope I can make a substantial contribution during my five weeks with the team, particularly in the Twenty20 Cup which I know has been a huge success in England.” Vincent will arrive on 21st June and play his first game for the County in the C & G Trophy match against Yorkshire at New Road on 25th June. ------------- |

worctershire are a 3 man show...zaheer, Phil Jaqcues and kabir...and thier batting line up is nothing to write home about..hick is too old..solanki has a poor average considering how long he has been playing and the rest are just bits and pieces cricketers.. ray price is Zimbabwean standard, they will be lucky to stay up and compete with other counties! ------------- |

County Championship D2, Bristol, day four (close): Gloucestershire 471 & 163-4 drew with Worcestershire 587-8d & 247-9d
Gloucestershire's Division Two match with Worcestershire finished in a tame draw after an uneventful final day. Visiting skipper Vikram Solanki waited until after lunch to declare, setting the home side an unrealistic 364. Worcestershire began the final day 223 ahead at 107-3 and fifties from Ben Smith and Graeme Hick put the match out of Gloucestershire's reach. Phil Weston and Christopher Taylor made watchful fifties as Gloucester made 163-4 before an early close was agreed. Worcestershire added 140 in 36 overs, with Graeme Hick passing fifty for the first time this season and hitting five fours in a 117-ball innings before glancing a leg-side catch to the keeper. India paceman Zaheer Khan struck off-spinner Martyn Ball for consecutive sixes over long-on from the only two deliveries he faced before the closure finally came. Although Worcester's declaration was cautious in the extreme, they were given hope of a surprise win when Gloucestershire lost two wickets in the opening 14 overs of their innings. Centurion Craig Spearman was bowled after attempting to pull one from Kabir Ali that was not short enough. Fellow New Zealander Hamish Marshall, who also reached three figures in the first innings, drove Gareth Batty to mid-on where Phil Jaques took a fine diving catch to his right. But Weston struck his fifth score over 50 this season, sharing 100 with Taylor in 30 overs. ------------- |

Well done Hickie on completing his 99th ton for Worcestershire!! That's his 129th first class ton and takes him above Graham Gooch and level with Len Hutton in 8th place overrall.
Only 8 players have made 100 tons with a single county , the last being Sir Geoffrey!! Hick made 151 , Ben Smith 121 as Worcester piled on the runs at Taunton. At close of play they were 444-3 - Taunton must be the batting paradise of world cricket!! ------------- Mental disintegration works for me !! |

It seems to be the sort of pitch where if you get in, you can go on and make a big score. We've lost two early wickets, but Wes Durston has hit a run a ball fifty as we've moved pretty swiftly to 90/2. The onus is now on him to get at least a hundred as we try and avoid the follow on. 618 the final score for Worcester - Willoughby took 6, caddiŁk 0-145, ouch! |
