Flooding forces Worcestershire to move ties
WORCESTER (England), Sept 9: Worcestershire shifted their final two home county matches on Monday after their ground was flooded for a second straight season by overflowing water from the River Severn.
Worcestershire will now play Middlesex in a 40-over game on Sunday at Chester Road in Kidderminster after New Road in Worcester was flooded. Worcestershire again play Middlesex in a four-day county match from Sept 17, also at Kidderminster.
Worcestershire lead second-place Warwickshire in division two by 16 points as they seek promotion to the top flight. They are sixth in the standings for the 40-over competition.—AP
