An early morning update by our man on the ground, or at least looking out of his hotel window directly on to the ground:
Rain. Lots and lots of gloriously heavy rain and, given this ground's reputation, that, you would think, will be that.

The weather forecast suggests we'll be lucky to get more than an hour or so play today. Perhaps, it's wishful thinking! www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2633563Meanwhile, get your raincoats and umbrellas out along with the canoe as Worcestershire CCC have a music event lined up for September 10th which could either be a disaster or a great success. UB40 and Lulu on the same bill? Interesting. It's here! Our biggest concert ever! We're delighted to welcome some legendary acts to New Road...

Morning from New Road. The covers are on but play is set to start on time providing there is no further rain... Oh cripes, let's begin the raindance and encourage that overcast sky to shed its load!

Why I am so worried by Machan coming to the wicket and setting off like a train with an SR of 150 plus???
Scott Joplin needs to have a word!

I'd have settled for 15 ahead at lunch with four down. But I hadn't accounted for The Flying Scotsman.
